Easily one of the most innovative and poetic natural histories I have read in years.” — Elizabeth Rush, author of Rising: Dispatches from the New American Shore “A poetic meditation on the devastations of modernity in the sea, on terra firma and, eventually, below ground. Whale hunters and reindeer herders, greedy capitalists and utopian planers, hopeful prospectors and raw material hungry government bureaucrats appear on the stage in this analytically powerful book, a monument to a people and their land just as much as an allegory of the world we have created.”— Sven Beckert, author of Empire of Cotton: A Global History “Brilliant, compelling, and beautifully executed. Demuth writes with the poetry and wisdom of the land and the sea, drawing the human-wrought past of a faraway place close to the lives and future of us all.” — Jack E. Davis, Pulitzer-prize winning author of The Gulf: The Making of an American Sea “Bathsheba Demuth’s history flows as richly and fluidly as Arctic waters. Floating Coast narrates the transmutation of nearly every object and idea into something else. As she tracks the dynamics of the modernist, ecological make-over of the Bering Strait, Demuth is inventing a new form of historical narrative.” — Kate Brown, author of Manual for Survival: A Chernobyl Guide to the Future A portion of proceeds from this book are returned to Beringia via the Katrivik Cultural Center, the Caleb Scholars Program, The Alaska Native Justice Center, The Alaska Humanities Forum, Trustees for Alaska & other organizations. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/561aca26e4b0af517e5e2cdf/1591623673577-MCP8SGTM7TCK6ER66PVS/Floating+Coast+Paperback+Cover.jpg Floating Coast http://www.brdemuth.com/events-1 daily 0.75 2026-02-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/561aca26e4b0af517e5e2cdf/1671468908610-OC68GA5Q07ZVSQCOC0IW/IMG_8489.JPG Events & Public Talks I speak regularly to university and general audiences about the Russian and American Arctic, what whales teach us about ethics, and the personal & historical lessons that come from working with sled dogs. I also support writers & scholars interested in communicating their work to a range of publics through writing classes for academics and community members. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/561aca26e4b0af517e5e2cdf/1575470855210-JBEOYG836PR298C0K9EJ/DSC02701.jpg Events & Public Talks - Past events http://www.brdemuth.com/research daily 0.75 2024-12-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/561aca26e4b0af517e5e2cdf/535902e9-e9b3-4abc-b7af-380fae970229/DSC00435.jpg Research https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/561aca26e4b0af517e5e2cdf/a86404f4-4394-4528-895d-7c74bfd8d43d/DSC02849.jpg Research Glacial till heading for the Yukon at the origins of the tributary White River https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/561aca26e4b0af517e5e2cdf/403b6754-15f6-4cfd-866b-2f24d2594f06/DSC01052.jpg Research A black bear along the bank of the Yukon River’s tributary, the Porcupine http://www.brdemuth.com/new-page-3 daily 0.75 2026-01-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/561aca26e4b0af517e5e2cdf/591252e7-d031-4799-a847-b9362b696c07/forest+fire.JPG Gallery - Make it stand out Fire in the Boreal Forest, Yukon River between Fort Selkirk and the White River, summer 2024 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/561aca26e4b0af517e5e2cdf/a7970ed9-219d-4779-bb90-6a2bf6e88571/BBF6FCFF-70E8-4A71-B364-1A988A33EEA7DSC02824.jpg Gallery - Make it stand out January 8: Bull caribou, western Denali National Park, taken August 2025.
