"The Sherpa Tukten still strikes me as one of the more remarkable characters in your work, fiction or nonfiction." "I think of him often—that disreputable little catlike man the others were so afraid of. Even George distrusted him. But when I left, he led me down out of those mountains, and I saw how he was treated in every village we passed through—the wary reverence—as if he were some sort of shaman."

" 'Wherever you go, a crow shows up, sooner or later,' GS remarks, 'and of all the crows I like the raven the best. In Alaska, at 40 below, no sign of life - and there's a raven!' GS had a pet raven while attending the University of Alaska, and this bird brought about his first encounter with the girl who became his wife: her attention was drawn to a man shouting at the sky, commanding an unseen raven to come back."
