Guided by photographer Jeff Jones' sure and well-developed vision, "Arctic Sanctuary" leads the reader on a remarkable journey that few of us will ever take in real life: a trek deep into Alaska's Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. By turns celebratory and contemplative, emotionally evocative and beautifully fierce, this collection of lyrical essays and stunning panoramic photographs pays homage to a vast and remote land that remains untamed by technology and undisturbed by human development. A rare window into a world that is whole, ecologically intact, and still driven by ancient evolutionary energies, "Arctic Sanctuary" invites us to examine our own ideas of the wilderness ethic in the modern world.
