Summary: One of the great journals of wilderness living
Comment: This is a powerful book and has quite a following. I was given the book by one of my best friends, which I consider a wonderful gift. This book has it all, beautiful photos, Richard's journal notes are amazing in their insight to his thinking and how this adventure unfolded. It is a simply wonderful book, and has people traveling to Alaska just to see the setting for such a balanced book. This book lays claim to new territory, and the claim is valid. No wonder it sells well, it is captivating reading and makes you look hard and close at your own life.

Summary: One Man's Wilderness
Comment: This book is so fascinating - an incredible story. I bought this book while vacationing in Alaska - what he did is incredible to someone like me - born and raised in the lower 48 and seeing how wild Alaska still is even now. And this book takes place thirty years ago! This book really embodies - to me - the spirit of those who live in Alaska.

Rating: 4
Summary: A wonderful "Alaskana" read
Comment: Sure the writing style isn't polished and there is little action, but I think that is what helps makes this such an enjoyable book. The observations and opinions presented in the closing pages (chapter 9) will cause most any reader to consider their place in their world. There is enough good here for me to add this to my extensive Alaskana library for long term keeping.
