Arctic Village (1933) is a book written by Robert Marshall, a celebrated American forester, writer, and wilderness activist (1901-1939), about the Koyukuk River area and the town of Wiseman, Alaska, United States of America. Marshall lived there for 15 months starting in 1930 while conducting research on tree growth near the Arctic Divide. Marshall referred to the people of the frontier village as "...the happiest civilization of which I have knowledge."[1]
Arctic Village was republished by the University of Alaska Press as the first title in its Classic Reprint Series.
