And always, throughout his journeys to some of the hottest, coldest, and most desolate places on the globe, Lopez searches for meaning and purpose in a broken world. \u003cb\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBarry Lopez is the author of three collections of essays, including \u003ci\u003eHorizon;\u003c\/i\u003e several story collections; \u003ci\u003eArctic Dreams\u003c\/i\u003e, for which he received the National Book Award; \u003ci\u003eOf Wolves and Men\u003c\/i\u003e, a National Book Award finalist; and \u003ci\u003eCrow and Weasel\u003c\/i\u003e, a novella-length fable.
