Chasing Lakes: Love, Science, and the Secrets of the Arctic
by Katey Walter Anthony Author
This book is a aquatic ecologist and permafrost scientist’s memoir of her captivating adventures across the Arctic, studying climate change and its effects on the ecosystem. Beyond laying out the science and findings she encounters, Katy Walter Anthony chronicles her personal learning and development — such as finding belonging with her family, and journeying into faith through the world of science. Her story begins in childhood, becoming enchanted with the lakes of her youth in the Sierra Nevada Mountains. Through the narrative of the book, she treks through the Arctic, through Siberia, a cabin in Alaska, facing interpersonal struggle and searching for love in the unlikely cold. The book is personal while at the same time a sobering look from the frontline of climate crisis — moving and evocative on multiple fronts.
