William D. Berry
This book offers a unique glimpse of Alaska and its creatures, rendered on paper by a man who loved and respected them. William D. Berry was nationally known as a wildlife artist, but to many Alaskans, he was also a kind of state treasure and certainly a natural resource. Berry's clear vision, conveyed with his disciplined skills, captured Alaska's creatures and their habitats in works that are both scientifically accurate and artistically compelling.

Prisoner of the Rising Sun
Hours after the bombing of Pearl Harbor, Japanese forces launched a devastating attack on U.S. troops in the Philippines. In May 1942, after months of battle with no reinforcements and no hope of victory, the remaining American forces, holed up on the tiny island of Corregidor, suffered a humiliating defeat, and 11,000 fighting men became prisoners of war in the largest American capitulation since Appomattox. Those lucky enough to survive the brutal conditions of their captivity remained imprisoned until General MacArthur returned to the Philippines in 1945.

William D. Berry
An exquisitely lovely book compiled by Berry's widow and covering work done during his first three years in Alaska. Here are hundreds of pencil studies (Berry's most confident medium) with his detailed notes on form, color, behavior. Most of this period was around Mt. McKinley with some drawings of marine life. Some 50 pages are color sketches. The bulk of the drawings carry Berry's detailed observations in legible block letters. A splendid book of natural history and art. If it meets with the success it deserves, we can hope to see further volumes. 11x9 Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
