The Whisper on the Night Wind

by Adam Shoalts

A signed first-edition, first-printing hardcover of The Whisper on the Night Wind: The True History of a Wilderness Legend by Canadian explorer and writer Adam Shoalts. Published by Allen Lane, an imprint of Penguin Canada, in 2021, this copy has the complete number line ending in 1 and includes its original dust jacket.

Shoalts combines history, wilderness travel, folklore, and investigative adventure as he follows a century-old Labrador mystery into the remote Mealy Mountains. The narrative examines unsettling reports associated with the abandoned settlement of Traverspine while recounting the author's own journey through the region. The book became a Canadian national nonfiction bestseller and includes maps and colour photographs from the expedition.

This copy is personally inscribed to Susan with the message “To Susan, and to great adventures,” followed by Adam Shoalts's large signature. It is an author-inscribed presentation copy, not a flat-signed copy.

Very Good overall, with very minor page toning as disclosed by the seller. The dust jacket is now protected in a removable clear plastic cover. The photographed colour-illustrated interior spread appears neatly preserved, with no obvious writing, staining, or tears visible on those particular pages. Please review the photographs for the copy-specific appearance and inscription.
