Cr�ticas:

"No writer on Alaska has ever succeeded as well as John Muir in combining accuracy of description with colorful word-painting. His writings are likely to remain for a long time the classics on the subject."--"The American Review of Reviews

Rese�a del editor:

John Muir first saw Alaska in 1879, only twelve years after it was purchased from Russia by the United States. Four more times, in 1880, 1881, 1890, and 1899, he was drawn back to this land of rivers and glaciers, sunsets and northern lights, campfires and Arctic stars. Few people have lived so many adventures, yet Muir was not a mere collector of adventure; the hazards he encountered - and many were spine tingling - came as a result of his intense desire to examine new aspects of the natural world.. NOTA: El libro no est� en espa�ol, sino en ingl�s.
