Interesting books about the arctic:

 Don't know if we have access to this or not, but there is an Aboriginal People Television Network in Canada that has a show called "Fish out of Water".  It follows different native people in their everyday lives for a few episodes and Gerald Azure, the trapper turned dog sled person was featured in one of those series.
