(From the back cover)  "An armchair excursion to Alaska with Paul Schullery as your guide is a wondrous experience.  You won't catch a salmon, and you needn't fear being jumped by a giant bear - but Real Alaska renders those experiences so vividly that the thrill and terror make the heart race.  Schullery's consideration of the dilemmas inherent in managing national parks in truly wild places is fair, tough-minded, and fascinating.  This is a valuable book."  Thomas McNamee -  author of The Return of the Wolf to Yellowstone and The Grizzly Bear

Real Alaska back cover - Click to enlarge"Real Alaska front cover - Click to enlargeSchullery, a great historian and naturalist, examines the connections between people and nature, providing a remarkable analysis of the natural and cultural resources of Katmai National Park, and the Last Frontier."  Gary Brown - author of The Great Bear Almanac and Outwitting Bears
