Synopsis
The Alaskan frontier is revealed at its most inspiring and unforgiving, through the eyes of its awestruck visitors. An enraptured John Muir first glimpses Glacier Bay; Jon Krakauer marvels at the sight of a grizzly's footprints in the snow; Erma Bombeck comments on the "cruise from hell," and more. Map.

From School Library Journal
YA?The 28 essays in this compilation are grouped geographically and are briefly introduced by the editor. Beginning with John Muir's first sight of Glacier Bay in 1879, the mostly autobiographical accounts provide a fascinating picture of the area and the people who visited, explored, or settled there. Contributors include Anne Morrow Lindbergh, Charles Kuralt, Ernie Pyle, John McPhee, Jon Krakauer, and many lesser known but equally perceptive writers. Recommended for YAs interested in wilderness exploration.
