Book Reviews of One Man's Wilderness: An Alaskan Odyssey (Annivers
Book Review: One Man's Wilderness
Summary: 5 Stars
One Man's Wilderness is an amazing book about how Richard Proenneke lived in Alaska for 31 years! This book was made by Sam Keith, and it has the journals and photographs by Richard Proenneke. If you buy the book you have to get the documentary, "Alone in the Wilderness," this special is just as interesting as the book!
The photographs are amazing and are crystal clear.
This book is just a nice way to relax and read about Richard Proenneke in nature. I would be very happy to be out in the wilderness, but I can't so reading about it is awesome.
Cabins are amazing, and much neater than the modern home today, so it's very interesting how he built it himself.
So I rate One Man's Wilderness 5 stars.
