Detailed map of wilderness areas in Southeast Alaska
More than 200 black-and-white illustrations

In-depth guide to Southeast Alaskaâ€™s flora and fauna; more than an identification manual, Nature explores how the species and habitats encountered in the woods and waters of Southeast Alaska fit into the bigger picture.

New to this edition:
- More than 100 new illustrations than in the previous edition, many never before published, as well as new maps and photos
- Major expansion of sections on geology, old-growth forests, marine mammals, and amphibians
- Fifty-two new sidebarsâ€”written in the first person to give the text a more personal touchÂâ€”that describe recent findings or experiences.
- Sweeping updates and elaborations to chapter narrativesâ€”often thanks to technology unknown in 1992.
