Crocodiles and Ice recounts Jon Turk's journey from suburban Connecticut into Deep Wild, an ancient passage, repeated ? in one form or another ? a zillion times, and ignored just as often. It is a storyteller's passage of discovery, full of high adventure and humour on his multiple award-winning Ellesmere Circumnavigation, as well as on expeditions in the jungles and oceans of the Solomon Islands, on the Himalayan plateau, and across the mountains of northern British Columbia. Throughout all these expeditions, Crocodiles and Ice explores a Consciousness Revolution toward a personal, spiritual, and reciprocal relationship with the planet ? even as our oil-soaked, internet-crazed, consumer-oriented society rushes rapidly and recklessly into massive and catastrophic climate change. He invites his readers to listen to our ancestors, a wolf that lingers, a Siberian shaman, a Chinese bicycle nomad, a lonely Tlingit warrior laying down to die in a storm, and the landscapes themselves. Because beyond technological marvels and imagined responsibility, there lies a glorious and sustainable lifestyle that is based ? not on consumerism and consumption ? but on Deep Wild as a place of solace, sanity, and hope.

Its impact explosion was equivalent to about one thousand times that of the atomic bomb dropped by the US on Hiroshima, Japan, at the end of the Second World War! Have I got your attention now? Thank goodness it landed in the middle of a wilderness; what if that had been New York? The impact destroyed about eighty million trees: an area of about two thousand square kilometres. Some scientists believe it to have been a fragment of a comet but as it vaporised on impact we can never really know.Another thing that scientists (in this case archaeologists) are not sure about is the reason for the construction of Stonehenge: the astonishing stone circle monument in Wiltshire, England. Let us not forget that while there are many theories as to the meaning and reason behind the construction of Stonehenge none of them have been conclusively proven as true.
