“Thomas Bancroft is a master teacher. Through the effective use of vignettes, he demonstrates his deep knowledge of natural history, ornithology, geology, and interdependence of a natural ecosystem's elements, while simultaneously working through significant personal loss.” - William Meadows, former President, The Wilderness Society “If you have the good fortune to be in the field with Thomas Bancroft, you will be immersed in wonders detailed by his keen awareness of creatures and their relations in all directions. This book is the next best thing.” - Kim Stafford, Lewis and Clark College Emeritus Professor, former Oregon State poet laureate, and author, As the Sky Begins to Change “I have been lucky enough to spend a great deal of time in the outdoors with all its drama, beauty and splendor. And on my many walks with Tom Bancroft he's taught to see the world through a gifted naturalist's lens, seeing landscapes, details and powerful connections. With this book you can get a glimpse of Alaska from the grand to the granular. His terrific camera work and pithy prose brings that world alive for all.” - Tom Martin, Former CEO and President, The American Forest Foundation
