About this Book: |
|
The new and revised edition of HAIKU GUIDE TO THE INSIDE PASSAGE is the story of a trip from Puget Sound to Skagway, Alaska and back on the trawler, Haiku. Along the way, you will sail into deep fjords, watch wildlife graze on remote shores; you will anchor beside glaciers which are only accessible by boat or float plane and visit first-nation fishing villages. Haiku, an age-old poetry form, is an ideal medium in which to word-paint a sea adventure. The dramatic photographs enhance the experience.

Book Review: |
|
Ostensibly, this is a wonderfully written account in poetic form, illustrated by excellent photography of that most scenic region. However, it really reads as a love story where two people share the companionship, adventure and solitude in a place where time seems to have frozen at an earlier, less hectic period. I highly recommend this book. -- an Amazon.com reader
