Although tourism is extremely small - scale, a handful of tour operators (
including Wild Frontiers) do cater for expats, NGO workers and curious visitors.
With gorgeous descriptions of the Alaskan
wilds and a vivid cast of characters -
including Forrester, his wife Sophie, a mysterious Eyak guide, and a Native American woman who joins the expedition - To the Bright Edge of the World is an epic tale of one of America's last
frontiers, combining myth, history, romance, and adventure.
