商品簡介
McKittrick and her husband first went adventuring as new college grads, but returned to the landscape of Alaska as a biologist-geologist pair of new parents. Following up on her previous travel-adventure memoir, this book tells the story of their travels with children around the enormous state of Alaska, peppered with their own scientific insights into what they saw, particularly climate change and its impacts visible even on the scale of mere years between their trips. Maps introduce every few chapters, showing the coastal villages, mines, and glaciers explored in the academic yet down-to-earth narrative. Annotation c2013 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
