Is it a love story? Or is it an adventure story? Or is it a commentaryon the tragedy of war? It is all of these, and more.  Caroline McCullaghweaves a thrilling and dynamic story around Anne O’Malley’s genealogical searchfor the story of her late husband’s father that takes her to the far North ofCanada to find new relatives among the Inuit culture, to Europe behind thelines in World War I, and back to the small Inuit village where she findsromance. The IvoryCaribou won Best Unpublished Novel in the San Diego Book Awards.

In TheIvory Caribou, Caroline McCullagh has created an enduring love storybetween a sixty-year-old woman and a man of unusual ethnicity. The author'sreal love, though, is of anthropology, history, and language. She is a luminousstoryteller and wordsmith of the highest order.
