Having been interested in the Yukon, I bought this book and all I can say is Wow. In addition to providing breathtakingly beautiful pictures, this book describes all aspects of the Yukon: Its geography, history, and people. It profiles some of the Yukon's many colourful citizens, from Jurg Hofer (who runs a trapline about as big as his native Switzerland), to Polly, the fabled 122-year-old parrot who died in 1972.
This book would get five stars just for the pictures alone, which detail much of the Yukon's pristine, untouched wilderness. It acts in effect like a travel brochure for the Yukon, showing some of the World's most beautiful wilderness.
This book should be sought after by those interested in the Yukon, those interested in wilderness, and those who love photography. It is a first-rate compendum of the Yukon, to which I would have given ten stars, if that were possible.
