Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor:

When first out of college, author Sam Wright assisted Robert Oppenheimer on the Manhattan Project. He later completed theological training and taught at a University of California, Berkeley seminary. Vocal opponents of the Alaskan pipeline, he and his first wife, Billie, became California "drop outs" in 1968 and moved to Alaska, where they built a cabin they named Koviashuvik. Billie died of cancer in 1987. Now a part-time Unitarian minister, he and his wife, Donna Lee, divide their time between Alaska and Arizona.
