Glacier Bay: Old Ice, New Land

William Dryden Boehm

Alaska Geographic Society

<p>Glacier Bay Old Ice, New Land is a natural history and photographic book that explores one of the earth's last primeval places, a spectacular landscape penetrated by fjords, home to wildlife including whales, seals, sea lions, sea otter, moose, mountain goats, brown and black bear, wolverine, bald eagles and puffins. More than a half million visitors come to this UNESCO Biosphere Reserve in Southeast Alaska's northern panhandle, drawn by its unspoiled natural beauty. First published in 1975, and now with a completely updated text and more than 250 photographs by the author, William D Boehm takes the reader on his beginning experience as a park ranger in Glacier Bay in 1972, then shares over 42 years of subsequent exploration and interpretation of this glaciated and mountainous landscape of incredibly beauty. Each chapter covers individual topics from geography and geology to plant succession, stream development, marine birds, and marine mammals.</p>
