With its vast diversity of land, people, and wildlife, Alaska is the last true American frontier. For the armchair traveler, those planning and dreaming of a future vacation, or those savoring a past trip of a lifetime, this spectacular volume brings together the majestic splendor of Americaâs largest stateâ591,104 square miles and twice the size of Texasâas captured by some of the worldâs top outdoor photographers.Spectacular Alaska celebrates the landâincluding Mt. McKinley, the highest point in North America at 20,320 feetâthe animalsâincluding bald eagles, walruses, moose, whales, wolves, and Alaskan brown bearâand also the people. Much of Alaska is still covered in wilderness, and here lie the giants of Americaâs national parks: Wrangell-St. Elias, almost six times the size of Yellowstone; Denali National Park, which is the size of Massachusetts and known as the Serengeti of the North because of its glorious wildlife; and many other national parks, monuments, and preserves. These parks, as well as the cities, villages, and regions in between are explored in the two hundred photographs and stunning panoramic gatefolds of Spectacular Alaska.
