Explore the awe, complexity, and enduring mystery of America's last frontier.
In A Fascination with Alaska: Beyond the Alaskan Cruise Naturalist, marine biologist William Stickle shares a lifetime of exploration, research, and teaching in Alaska's wild and varied landscapes.

Ideal for curious travelers, scientists, and anyone captivated by the North, this book goes beyond the cruise ship to uncover the natural forces and human stories that make Alaska one of the most fascinating places on Earth.
