An illlustrated history of the largest metropolis in Alaska, its changes in character and growth over the last century. Gold exploration, railroad boom and bust, military occupation, air age discovery, oil fever, earthquakes, and finally massive oil wealth all figure into transforming this relatively recent wilderness site into a jewel of a city. Anchorage is celebrating over 300 years of rich history.

reviewed Historic Anchorage: An Illustrated History on June 28, 2018 Historic Anchorage: An Illustrated History
Our National Parks is a collection of essays that John Muir wrote for The Atlantic. I agree with many reviewers who have described Muir as "verbose." However, hidden among the pages of botanical descriptions are delightful stories about his encounters with bears, hermits, earthquakes, avalanches, and even a tired mule. My favorite story, when Muir tried to convince Ralph Waldo Emerson to camp with him in Yosemite, is the source of his famous quote, "The mountains are calling." Anyone who has visited---or plans to visit---Yellowstone, Grand Teton, Yosemite, or Sequoia would enjoy reading these essays.
