About this title

Synopsis:

Containing hundreds of field sketches, studio drawings, and photographs, this book is a tribute to the people and wildlife of Alaska's backcountry. Here is a rare glimpse into the history of the original Alaskan pioneers, who spent their days prospecting, fighting off grizzlies, and exploring the rugged countryside. Also featured is a close look at the nature and fauna of Alaska, from moose grazing in mountain meadows to caribou locked in battle to bears fishing in salmon-rich streams.

From the Back Cover:

The Alaska Sketchbook comprises hundreds of field sketches, studio drawings and photographs celebrating America's Last Frontier. Inside you'll find chapters on Alaska's gold diggers and mushers, its birds and its mammals. The author, artist and Alaska resident, Doug Lindstrand, also includes a diary of sorts, a journal of his wanderings and contacts with the people and wildlife of the North.
