Great Pictures,

This review is from: Alaska's Inside Passage (Hardcover)
Having just returned from my first Alaskan cruise, I was looking for a book to capture the beauty and grace of this wild land. I was so impressed by the full page pictures that I bought copies for several family members who were also on the cruise with me. Just opening this book takes me back on the cruise. The text is descriptive and insightful, but it is the 9.5 by 13 inch pictures that fill my vision and bring back memories.

Inside Passage,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Alaska's Inside Passage (Hardcover)
My wife had seen this book at another person's house before we cruised the inside passage. Gave us a preview of what was to come. After our cruise it was fun going back over what we had seen. We ordered the book after our trip. We especially enjoyed the beautiful photographs. We both own digital cameras and especially enjoy good pictures. The book has a nice overall appeal and look to it. The text was excellent.

Photography capturing natures multitude of wonders,
By A Customer
This review is from: Alaska's Inside Passage (Hardcover)
This book offers the serenity and solitude of the outdoors, seen by few and unexperienced by many. The inside passage is the untouched adventure that the photographer has magnificently demonstrated by the composition of the moment! Incredible, to the point of allowing the reader to share the feeling of the experience.
