About this Book: |
|
This book takes you from Puget Sound to Skagway, Alaska on "Haiku", a 28 foot trawler. Along the way, you will anchor in deep fjords, watch wildlife graze remote shores, view glaciers only accessible by boat or float plane and visit first-nation villages. Easily-understood and often moving three-line haiku describe the journey; dramatic color photographs add to the impact and pleasure of the book. A perfect gift for haiku afficianatos or Alaska travelers.
