It is difficult to see such a country as a whole and, if only in terms of physical endurance, it is even more difficult to make a portrait of Alaska single-handed. Yet that is what Hans Blohm has done.
The images in this book result from years of Alaskan travel, including many expeditions by private bush planes and special journeys to photograph the northern ranges in winter. Hans Blohm is a Master of Photographic Arts with an international reputation for both landscape and scientific photography. Among the many fields in which he is eminent, Alaska holds for him a very special place. He has been able to show Alaska in many of its aspects and to convey something of its grandeur through the pages of this book.
An extensive and detailed intro with long, descriptive captions, written by Claus M. Naske, Professor of History at the University of Alaska, Fairbanks, and a historian of the 49th State, sets the background and fills in the details of this exceptional book.
