Through a blend of narrative travel writing, personal reflection, and natural history, the collection exhibits a range of literary styles, showcasing the profound influence Alaska had on conservationist thought and the American environmental movement at large. The backgrounds of John Muir, the father of America's national parks, and S. Hall Young, a missionary and explorer, provide a rich tapestry of perspectives that contribute to the depth of this collection. Their explorations during the late 19th century coincide with a burgeoning interest in natural preservation and a reappraisal of humanitys relationship with the natural world. By intertwining their experiences and insights, THE ALASKA ACCOUNT encapsulates a fascinating period in American history where adventure met scientific inquiry, setting the stage for future environmental advocacy and policy. This anthology is recommended for readers who seek to understand the roots of environmentalism, appreciate the sublime beauty of Alaska, and explore the philosophical underpinnings of conservation efforts. THE ALASKA ACCOUNT is not just a collection of travelogues; it is an invitation to witness the transformative power of nature through the pioneering journeys of Muir and Young. For students of environmental studies, history, and literature, as well as those moved by the call of the wild, this volume presents an unparalleled compendium of insights and experiences that continue to resonate with contemporary discussions about nature and humanitys place within it.

Download or read book Acts of Occupation written by Janice Cavell and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2011-01-01 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As climate change threatens to open the Northwest Passage to ice-free travel, Canadian sovereignty over the Arctic has come to the fore. Although Canada’s claim to the Arctic archipelago is now firmly entrenched in the minds of Canadians, less than a century ago, that claim was much less secure. Acts of Occupation draws on a wealth of previously untapped archival sources to piece together the engrossing story of how one explorer’s self-serving ambition ultimately led Canada to craft and defend a decisive Arctic policy. Historians Cavell and Noakes show how unfounded paranoia about Danish designs on the north, fueled by a deliberate campaign of deceit and fear-mongering, was the catalyst for Canada’s active administrative occupation of the Arctic. A compelling tale, Acts of Occupation throws new light on a transformative period in the history of Canadian Arctic policy and provides much-needed historical context for contemporary debates on northern sovereignty.
