With a body twisted by adolescent scoliosis and memories of the brutal death of a woman he loved, Lynn Schooler kept the world at arms length, drifting through the wilds of Alaska as a commercial fisherman, outdoorsman, and wilderness guide. In 1990, Schooler met Japanese photographer Michio Hoshino, and began a profound friendship cemented by a shared love of adventure and a passionate quest to find the elusive glacier bear, an exceedingly rare creature, seldom seen and shrouded in legend. But only after Hoshinos tragic death from a bear attack does Schooler succeed in photographing the animal completing a remarkable journey that ultimately brings new meaning to his life.The Blue Bear is an unforgettable book. Set amid the wild archipelagoes, deep glittering fjords, and dense primordial forests of Alaskas Glacier Coast, it is rich with the lyric sensibility and stunning prose of such nature classics as Barry Lopezs Arctic Dreams and Peter Matthiessens The Snow Leopard.
