Product Description Discusses the geography, history, economy, and daily life of the Alaskan port city of Valdez From School Library Journal Gr 69Two excellent titles that are full of information, excellent fullcolor photographs, and detailed maps. Each book includes a description and history of the port, as well as a lot of detail about the kinds of goods shipped in and out. One chapter in each title discusses several controversial topics and takes a look at the future. For example, in Valdez, Ferrell examines the effect a billion dollar business (oil shipping) has on a tiny, remote town in Alaska. In Vancouver, Hancock discusses the effect NAFTA has on trade at this port. The format of these books allows for much information to be compressed into a small volume. A thorough index and clear subheadings allow access to sections of the book not outlined in the rather cryptic table of contents. Boldface words are defined in the glossaries.Lucinda Lockwood, Thomas Haney Secondary School, Maple Ridge, BCCopyright 1998 Cahners Business Information, Inc.
