Description
In this collection of sixty-one essays and poems, Alaskans express admiration and awe of the landscape and its wild inhabitants. Celebratory, sobering and thought provoking, these writings also bear witness to the effects of climate change and development. They ponder the irony of the author’s own impact, an inevitable consequence of living here. Contributors to this anthology include John Haines, Nick Jans, Peggy Shumaker, Nancy Lord and Richard Nelson.
