At the requests of hundreds of Alaskan cruisers, Kathy published Rendezvous with Majesty. The book gives detailed information about Alaska’s glaciers in easily understood layman’s language. This 42-page full color book is professionally done; many schoolteachers use it to help students understand geology. It is great for “students of all ages.”
The beginning of the Rendezvous with Majesty answers the 12 most frequently asked questions about glaciers. These questions include: What is a glacier in the first place? Why is glacial ice sometimes blue? What are the apparent tracks in glaciers? What is a fjord? In addition, there are eight more pressing questions for visitors to glaciers.
These answers are applicable for Alaska’s glaciers, but also for any glacier in the world. This includes glaciated places found in New Zealand, Chile, Iceland, and others. In addition to these twelve questions, Rendezvous with Majesty specifically features Hubbard Glacier, College Fjord, and Tracy/Endicott Arm near Juneau. All three of these glaciated areas are some of the most remarkable locations on the planet.
In addition to great glacier photos and information, the last 10 pages of Rendezvous with Majesty highlight the lighthouses seen on an Alaska cruise.
