"Reading the richly detailed passages presented here,...the reader can witness Alaska's transformation from a forbidding wilderness into a land that becomes increasingly imaginable and accessible."
—From the foreword, Stephen Haycox
A QUOTE FROM THE BOOK >>
“There is, of course, no path, nor would it be possible to
make one; for the rocks are loose and insecure, and the
passage of a man will often send a boulder crashing down,
to the deadly peril of those below. In some places, it was
necessary to squeeze round the wall of the precipice on
narrow ledges of rock that trembled underfoot and
threatened to dislodge and send one whirling....”
—Harry de Windt
