Anotace knihy

The essays and poems collected in "Crosscurrents North" offer thoughtful meditations on the Alaska environment and the relationship between humans and nature. With contributions from writers such as John Haines, Nick Jans, Peggy Shumaker, Sherry Simpson, and Bill Sherwonit, this collection celebrates the wildness and wonder of nature as well as the human impact on it. The writers tackle weighty topics such as the changing Alaska landscape and the impact of humans on its wild inhabitants, the effects of climate change, and the environmental side effects of architectural development, as well as tranquil meditations on the iconic bear and wolf or the world of berries, moss, and mushrooms. Jay Hammond, a former governor of Alaska, also contributes a foreword. A clarion call for environmentalists and lovers of literature alike, "Crosscurrents North" challenges us to reconsider our relationship to the natural world.
