Alaska Spirit of the wild

Streaming video - 2021

Alaska is a place little contaminated by the present, where we can rediscover vitality and beauty vanishing from our lives. whether or not we will ever reach Alaska, we all want to know that such a place still exists. These thoughts are a poignant summation of narrator Charlton Heston's view on the great state of Alaska. Transporting viewers on a voyage into the last great frontier where nature enchants the eye with magnificent spectacles, this film takes audiences fishing with brown bears, soaring with bald eagles, dodging calving glaciers, and racing on the hooves of caribou-all from the comfort of their homes. Director George Casey masterfully relates the genesis of Alaska and then explores its rich history, surprising wildlife, mag...nificent landscapes, harsh climate, and abiding spirit.
