This Alaska coloring book does more than just serve the needs of tourists looking for something to buy for the grandkids. It is truly interesting and educational, and the drawings are exceptionally well done.

For anyone curious about the mystique of Alaska, this is a must-read. If you can't make a trip to Alaska, this is the next best thing. Not only for women, anyone will enjoy this book.

Dr. Castanza's pioneering work provides the first comprehensive study from Alaska of the core issue in the current debate over the charter school system - the need to match freedom with accountability. His objective, factual examination reveals the current down-playing of accountability, traces the problem to the political tendencies which impact the school system, and digs deep down to the philosophical underpinnings of these tendencies.

This book is filled with ecological, geological and historical information. The work is superbly written to be enjoyed and understood by all readers. The artwork presented within the book is reason enough to own the book. Add to this the fact that you are supporting a great cause and probably gaining information you have never thought about before and you have a real winner. I am still amazed at the way Riki manages to get the names(sometimes in Latin)of all the flora and fauna included in the text while still maintaining the reader's interest.

In 1969, Barney Sabo decided to resign from his position as a secondary school principal and move to a remote part of Alaska with his wife and reside in a wilderness hunting/fishing lodge almost 200 miles outside of Anchorage. Alaska's Evergreen Lodge On Beautiful Lake Louise is the biographical story of how the move was made, the life style changes that ensued, the challenges and adventures experienced so deep into nature's wilderness and far from the comforts and stresses of "civilization". Alaska's Evergreen Lodge is highly recommended reading for anyone who has ever dreamed of chucking it all and going "back to nature" to enjoy a simpler life.

This book offers the serenity and solitude of the outdoors, seen by few and unexperienced by many. The inside passage is the untouched adventure that the photographer has magnificently demonstrated by the composition of the moment! Incredible, to the point of allowing the reader to share the feeling of the experience.

Interesting and well-written book on 35 of the most popularland and marine mammals in Alaska. Quick and amusing stories on each animals. All the boring facts (color, size, etc.) are set off in a fact box for quick reference. Nice color pictures although they are a bit small. Cover has a lynx on it - not what you'd think of for Alaska- but a great cover shot...

A guide specific for the Alaskan Wilderness. A must have for any Alaskan mushroom hunters collection.

Alaska's National Wildlife Refuges is an eye-catching collage of fascinating facts, gorgeous color photographs of nature and animals, the history and current challenges confronting Alaska's wildlife refuges, and much, much more. An absorbing, well-researched, and deftly presented read, Alaska's National Wildlife Refuges is highly recommended for Alaskan Wildlife and Wildlife Conservation reading lists and reference collections.
