Liberty Bay Books North Kitsap's locally owned Independent book store

Excitement captured by a celebrated photographer leaps from the pages of a book alive with nature's thrilling forces and magnificent creatures. Unique new long-exposure techniques from the camera of a great artist show readers the ebb and flow of tides, the force of winds and snow, the gush of lava, and the incredible movement of wildlife -- such stunning events as spawning salmon, thundering impala, birds in flight -- frozen into single impressionistic images. Readers will also enjoy the accompanying quotes drawn from the writings of such eminent naturalists and authors as Rachel Carson, John Muir, and Isak Dinesen. Art Wolfe s prolific work is featured regularly in National Geographic, Outdoor Photographer, and many other magazines worldwide; this is his 25th book. When not traveling, he is based in Seattle.
