See the North as few have seen it -- through the eyes of author Rick Ranson as he worked on the DEW Line and drill ships in the Arctic. In 'Working North', the characters, landscapes, and perils of the North combine with its beauty and mystery to make rich, fascinating tales.

Natural-born storyteller Rick Ranson grew up in military bases across Canada. Today he spends his time living between Winnipeg and Key West, Florida. Ranson has worked variously as a longshoreman, drill ship's welder, boilermaker, farm equipment salesman, editor for McGraw Hill, and forklift operator. Bittersweet Sands is his third book.
