Winner of the National Outdoor Book Award. Celebrating the 50th
anniversary of when Dick Proenneke first broke ground and made his
mark in the Alaskan wilds in 1968, this bestselling memoir features
an all-new foreword by Nick Offerman plus color photographs not
seen in print for over 20 years. To live in a pristine land
unchanged by man...to roam a wilderness through which few other
humans have passed...to choose an idyllic site, cut trees, and
build a log cabin...to be a self-sufficient craftsman, making what
is needed from materials available...to be not at odds with the
world, but content with one’s own thoughts and company...
Thousands have had such dreams, but Dick Proenneke lived them. He
found a place, built a cabin, and stayed to become part of the
country. One Man’s Wilderness is a simple account of the
day-to-day explorations and activities he carried out alone, and
the constant chain of nature’s events that kept him company. From
Dick’s journals, and with firsthand knowledge of his subject and
the setting, Sam Keith has woven a tribute to a man who carved his
masterpiece out of the beyond.
