Book
The giant's hand : a life in arctic Alaska / Nick Jans.
Follow award-winning Alaska writer and photographer Nick Jans to northwest arctic Alaska--a vast wilderness where caribou roam, the northern lights blaze, and Inupiaq Eskimo hunters cling to vanishing traditions. Weaving tales of life-or-death adventure, everyday life, and personal experiences gleaned from over three decades of arctic experience, Jans creates vivid, poignant images of a land and its people on the cusp of change. The Giant's Hand is at the same time an inner exploration, brimming with moments of profound, often poetic insight.
