An incredible wealth of knowledge has been compiled in this image rich book about a fairly remote coastal region of the world. I have been fortunate enough to see and study much of Alaska's nearshore ecosystem and this book captures the large and small scale processes and features that are so distinctive of this region. I have spent several decades learning about Alaska's coastal habitat in the field and now there is finally a go to reference that synthesizes it all. I will be recommending this to scientists, educators, students, and beach goers as a must read. Thanks to the authors for their expertise and efforts to produce such a wonderful resource.
