Running With Reindeer: Encounters in Russian Lapland: Russian Lapland. Here lies the last true wilderness of Europe, a rich and pristine ecosystem teeming with bird and animal life. But here too lie the mines and naval bases of the former Soviet Union. In Running with Reindeer Roger Took chronicles the decade he spent in the region living among remote reindeer-herding and hunting families, following the lives of its residents, and exploring naval bases where rotting nuclear-powered submarines are lying dangerously neglected. Moving between the lines of the official histories, coping with arduous Arctic conditions, and sharing his dramatic and emotional interactions with the people he met, Took's Running with Reindeer is the first account in over a century to describe life in this harsh but beautiful land.
