This visionary tone poem explores the nature and indigenous ecological traditions that influenced imperial expedition naturalist G.W. Steller who, at the moment of his death in 1746, recalls his discoveries and travel throughout Siberia and the North Pacific.

T Edward Bak is a native of Colorado and a long-time Oregon resident exploring intersections of culture and ecology in western North America through his comics work.
