"Chapter introductions and detailed captions provide readers with a fabulous tour of the Pacific, Arctic, and Atlantic coasts and the people who call these regions home." - NO ATTRIBUTION EXISTS "Photographer and author Scott Forsyth logged many daring miles—via tall ship, Zodiac, helicopter, an eight-story ocean-going vessel, as well as on foot—during expeditions to Canada's three coastlines to capture his images: mountains, fjords, forests, glaciers, sky, and ice. Also: grizzly bears, polar bears, orcas, birds, and sea lions. Nor does he omit the human face of Canada: Inuit, Haida, fishermen, kayakers, islanders, as well as numerous tiny ports and settlements." - NO ATTRIBUTION EXISTS

"Opening this book is like stepping into a prestigious gallery. With each image we sink deeper into coastal culture, climate and community. The added attention to text makes the storytelling even richer. This book provides the reader with a lasting visual and literary impact." — Helen Rolfe, 2020 Book Competition Jury
