Reseña del libro "Where Did the Nickel Go? (en Inglés)"

In 1956, twenty-year old Lowell R. DeMond left his home in rural Nova Scotia to live in the big city of Toronto. There, his motive for financing university tuition had not been reached. Instead of returning home, DeMond went north to a desolate weather station on the edge of the world. People do strange things for money. Where Did the Nickel Go? is the amazing true account of DeMonds time as a meteorological technician at the Eureka weather station, on Ellesmere Island, just six hundred miles from the North Pole During his two year stint in Canada's frozen north, DeMond and seven other men lived and worked in one of the most hostile environments on Earth, where fine dining consisted of various foods including powdered eggs, powdered milk, and powdered potatoes. With a resilient sense of humor, DeMond shares many incredible stories about this unique experience, including filling a tooth, being hit by a musk ox, the time women visited the weather station, and a saga involving a missing nickel. Through it all DeMond managed to keep an upbeat attitude, and he looks upon his experiences fondly. He hopes you will too.
