Polar War: Submarines, Spies and the Struggle for Power in a Melting Arctic (Nonfiction), Western MA / Northern Italy
Polar War: Submarines, Spies and the Struggle for Power in a Melting Arctic (Simon & Schuster, 2026) takes readers across the circumpolar north to chronicle the dual impacts of climate change and the new cold war.
“The reporting and writing in “Polar War” hopes to reveal the High North region in a light few rarely see, taking readers inside a polycrisis affecting the lives of millions inside and outside the Arctic Circle to impart how much a melting world brings not only heat and rising seas, but also war.”
