- I would read anything that Wayne Sort wrote but this is still a very good read. It is in the same style as his other writtings and anyone who has read any of his books will enjoy this.

1 comments about Ten Thousand Miles with a Dog Sled: A Narrative of Winter Travel in Interior Alaska.
- A wonderful book. English born Stuck was appointed Episcopal Archbishop for the Alaska territory at the end of the 19th century, a role he took very seriously. For a product of blue-blood Victorian England his attitudes to the native peoples were surprisingly enlightened (for example, he rages against the corrupting influence of Russian fur traders).
Tough as the any of the most intrepid Victorian explorers his stiff upper lip attitude to the dangers & deprivations of back country life make for amusing reading (apparently he dressed for dinner on the trail).
The Alaska University Press edition contained some nice photographs, I'm not sure if this one does.

1 comments about Into Wild Alaska (The Jeff Corwin Experience).
- The Jeff Corwin Experience from Blackbirch Press and Thomas Learning is a new series of nature books, long awaited by the young fans of the TV's crazy snake hunter Jeff Corwin, who is so popular on Animal Planet, Discovery, and The Learning Channel. In the introduction Jeff tells young readers,"I don't need to go (that) far to see amazing wildlife up close...you can still experience the awesome beauty of nature almost anwhere you go, any day of the week. The books in the new series for elementary age readers are 46 pages and loaded with full color photographs and Jeff's enthusiastic words telling about whatever place he is examining in each volume. Each has a very helpful glossary at the end to explain the terms he uses in explaining and teaching his readers. The series includes Snaketacular, which is about Jeff's passion and favorite species. There will be a book on each state, introducing kids to the natural wonders of plants and animals within or unique to that state. We selected Alaska, Arizona, Louisiana, California, and Florida and found each to be equally exciting and informative. Although the format and layout is the same for each, the facts and ****** are completely unique in each. This is an excellent series to gift your school library or your children! And be sure to take these along on trips to enhance your learning and fun for the entire family. Adults will learn as much as the kids!
