His expeditions range from mapping rivers to archaeological projects, but Shoalts is best known for his long solo wilderness journeys, including crossing alone nearly 4,000 km of Canada’s Arctic. His latest adventure was a 3,400 km solo journey from Lake Erie to the Arctic, the subject of his new book Where the Falcon Flies. His other national bestselling books include Alone Against the North, A History of Canada in 10 Maps, and Beyond the Trees: A Journey Alone Across Canada’s Arctic, and The Whisper on the Night Wind. He has a PhD from McMaster University in history, and in his free time, enjoys long walks in the woods.
