When the ship sinks in a storm-swept fjord within 50 miles of its destination, the story turns to the stranding and subsequent rescue of the three-man crew, salvage of the vessel, and life among native Greenlanders. Magnificently illustrated by Kent's wood-block prints and narrated in his poetic and highly entertaining style, this tale of the perils of killer nor'easters, treacherous icebergs, and impenetrable fog -- and the joys of sperm whales breaching or dawn unmasking a longed-for landfall -- is a rare treat for old salts and landlubbers alike.]]> 171263 3.96 55 7 7087 3.92 89 15 1978 296694 0819552933 9780819552938 0 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1173485620m/296694.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1173485620s/296694.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/296694.Wilderness_A_Journal_of_Quiet_Adventure_in_Alaska_Including_Extensive_Hitherto_Unpublished_Passages_from_the_Original_Journal 4.38 8 171263 3.96 55 7 171269 4.38 8 0 1996 440986 0819564095 9780819564092 0 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1174793630m/440986.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1174793630s/440986.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/440986.Voyaging_Southward_from_the_Strait_of_Magellan 4.00 5
The first edition was published to great critical acclaim. New Republic wrote, "the land lives. A land where roses are as big as sun-flowers, where gales gnaw against bleak cliffs . . . At the end of the earth, there is the paradox of the dwarf and the giant." The Nation said, "Kent has caught the wild beauty of this ominous region -- iron crags ringed with the froth of blown surf, wind-tortured trees, distant peaks incrusted with dazzling snow; but out of the very heart of this bewildering beauty emanates a sense of unseen presences appallingly, implacably hostile to man."]]> 171263 3.96 55 7 2000 3743927 0306774127 9780306774126 0 http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-60x80.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3743927.It_s_Me_O_Lord_The_Autobiography_of_Rockwell_Kent 5.00 1 171263 3.96 55 7 1977 1066617 0819566772 9780819566775 0 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1180697035m/1066617.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1180697035s/1066617.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1066617.Salamina 5.00 1 171263 3.96 55 7 2003 4715929 0548453780 9780548453780 0 http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-60x80.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4715929.World_Famous_Paintings 2.00 1 171263 3.96 55 7 2007 7385582 0001375571 2940001375579 0 http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-60x80.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/7385582-wilderness 0.0 0 171263 3.96 55 7 7385581 0001697889 2940001697886 0 http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-60x80.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/7385581-wilderness 0.0 0 171263 3.96 55 7 7385580 1117036693 9781117036694 0 http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-60x80.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/7385580-wilderness 0.0 0 171263 3.96 55 7 2009 7385579 0217417574 9780217417570 0 http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-60x80.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/7385579-wilderness 0.0 0 171263 3.96 55 7 2009
