The animals in the wilderness near Fairbanks, Alaska, witness some of the world's greatest temperature extremes and light variations ever year. At an average low of -16 degrees Fahrenheit, the winters may be unpleasantly frigid, but the light shows are always glorious!</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"Van Zyle's superb and quietly beautiful acrylic paintings...capture both light and dark in perfect harmony with the text.
