Alaska’s Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, home to only a handful of people, is a harsh and lonely place. So when James Campbell’s cousin Heimo Korth asked him to spend a summer building a cabin in the rugged Interior, Campbell hesitated about inviting his fifteen-year-old daughter, Aidan, to join him: Would she be able to withstand clouds of mosquitoes, the threat of grizzlies, bathing in an ice-cold river, and hours of grueling labor ? Their Alaskan adventure - and two more over the next year - would test them and their relationshp as never before. At turns poignant and humorous, Braving it is an ode to America's disappearing wilderness and a profound meditation on what it means for a child to grow up - and a parent to finally, fully let go.
