BEYOND BEAUTY—VERY SPIRITUAL AND HUMBLING

some of the best pictures of the NORTHERN LIGHTS
some of the best pictures of the NORTHERN LIGHTS. Beautiful produced photos and excellent descriptions of the cause of the lights.

Buy this book for the glorious pictures, not if you're looking for a detailed explanation of the aurora. The text is to a large degree secondary - although the photographs are heavily skewed towards Alaskan/Canadian views of the aurora, they are plentiful and sumptuous and worth the price of admission alone...
