The Salmon Way Gets In Top 10 List For Best Nature Photography Books

Amy Gulick’s wonderful book, The Salmon Way: An Alaska Way Of Mind, would make for a great last-minute Christmas gift (check out the excerpt and interview with the author we had back in May 2019).

The book was ranked in the top 10 list for best nature photography works by naturetti.com.

Here’s what the website said about Gulick’s book:

7. The Salmon Way: An Alaska State of Mind by Amy Gulick –

Amy Gulick is a Founding Fellow of the International League of Conservation Photographers. Her book The Salmon Way celebrates and explores the relationships between people and five species of salmon in Alaska.

She features engaging stories shared by Alaskans from different backgrounds. The writing is both personal and educational. One of my favourite pages explores her first experience of a salmon run and the excitement this brought to the local community.

These fish provide a vital source of food, livelihood, and identity, while also connecting generations and communities throughout Alaska. While salmon are integral to the lives of many Alaskans, they are increasingly under threat. Their habitats are at risk from large-scale development, unsustainable commercial fishing, and climate change.
