Black boards with gilt lettering on the spine. 189 historical and informative pages! "In the late 1930s and 1940s, with the fall of much of Europe first to the Nazis and then to the Soviets, the end of history seemed real, often imminent. In the 1950s and the early 1960s, with Cold War tension and the threat of nuclear holocaust, the apocalypse seemed equally real, in some ways more imminent. Arthur Koestler, because of his Middle European Jewish background, his refugee situation, and his personality, felt the apocalyptic nature of his times with particular intensity, and for a generation of his life, from his first book in English in 1937 to his farewell to political literature in 1955, he chose to express himself mainly in apocalyptic and prophetic modes." ---- from the Introduction.…

Trade paperback. Condition: Very Good. The Book is in Very Good+ condition. In A Republic of Rivers, John Murray offers the first comprehensive anthology of nature writing in Alaska and the Yukon, ranging from 1741 to the present. Many of the writers found here are major figures--John Muir, Jack London, Annie Dillard, Barry Lopez, and Edward Abbey--but we also discover the voices of missionaries, explorers, mountain-climbers, Native Americans, miners, scientists, backpackers, and fishermen, each trying to capture something of the beauty of this still pristine land, to render in their own words the spell that the country casts upon them. The range of viewpoints is remarkable. With Annie Dillard we look out at ice floes near the remote Barter Island and see "what newborn babies must see: nothing but senseless variations of light on the retinas." With Frederick Litke we mourn the senseless slaughter of sea mammals. We join scientist Adolph Murie, the father of wolf ecology, as he probes the daily life of an East Fork wolf pack. And we listen as Tlingit Indian Johnny Jack relates the difficulty of maintaining a dignified life close to nature at a time of cultural upheaval for his people. Most of these selections have never appeared in any anthology and some entries--particularly those written by early American and Russian explorers--have never been available to general readers.There is laughter here and there is sorrow, but finally there is communion and liberation as generation after generation encounter the unsurpassed beauty and wildness of the Arctic. Taken together, these forty-nine men and women provide a unique portrait of America's final frontier.…
