This book by Julie and Miki Collins tells of their life as trappers in the modern world. At twenty four they became full time trappers on an eight hundred square mile trapline in Alaska. Traveling by dogsled, canoe, light aircraft and foot they work this area of Alaska to support themselves by selling the furs from the animals they catch.
At five foot five, these identical twins are not the stereotypical trappers of the 19th century, but they afford a brief glimpse into their lives which are inextricably intertwined with the natural rhythm of the planet.
