The Tongass: Alaska's Vanishing Rain Forest Download Free (EPUB, PDF)
Detail, perception and sensitivity of whole surroundings. The combination of these qualities lives in Ketchum's work. And behind the exceptional work is a deeply committed and talented man. --Robert RedfordUpdated on the occasion of a five-year Smithsonian Institution traveling exhibition, The Tongass, first published by Aperture in 1987, was instrumental in Congress's passage of the Timber Reform bill in 1990. Presenting Alaska's enduring natural wonders as well as its blighted forests and heavily industrialized ports, Ketchum also recounts the short-sighted policies implemented by industry and the federal government.
