Description
Celebrating 50 years since Dick Proenneke first broke ground in the Alaskan wilds, this anniversary edition of his memoir features a new foreword and previously unseen color photographs.
Proenneke's simple account of his day-to-day explorations and activities, as recorded in his journals, offers a unique glimpse into a life of self-sufficiency and harmony with nature. With Sam Keith's tribute, the story of a man who carved his own path in the wilderness comes alive.
Through his writings, Proenneke shares his experiences of building a log cabin, making what he needed from available materials, and finding contentment in solitude. A testament to the power of human ingenuity and connection with the natural world, One Man's Wilderness is a poignant and introspective read.
