About this product
Product Information
To many Americans in the "Lower 48," Alaska seems almost a foreign country, and John McPhee's evocations of its people and its landscapes in no way alters that impression. McPhee gives us, as only he can, a vivid picture of the state's varied variegation and a feeling for its special identity.
