Snow has a lot in common with religion. It comes from heaven. It creates an alternative reality. And it brings on irrational behaviour in humans. But unlike most religions snow has never had a bible, until now. In this book, Giles Whittell takes the reader on a quest through centuries and continents to reveal the wonders of snow. Along the way he uncovers the mysteries of snow crystal morphology, why avalanches happen and how snow saved a prime minister's lite. The Secret Life of Snow is the next best thing to a white Christmas. |
