He was a polarizing figure to be sure but his story telling ability and verve for the environment is something I will always admire. It was reading his book Lost in the Barrens that sparked my interest in the North and the follow up Curse of the Viking Grave turned into a roaring fire. There are two people in my life that attribute to my love of the outdoors and he was one. The other was my high-school Outdoor Ed Teacher.
It truly does sadden me to see this man pass. I hope history will treat him better than Conrad Black did.
RIP Farley Mowat
