Alaska by Cruise Ship: The Complete Guide to Cruising Alaska with Giant Pull-out Map (6th Edition)
$21.95
We found Alaska By Cruise Ship to be a great help on our cruise this summer. We bought two other guides and this one was by far the most helpful with good and useful information on attractions and shore excursions in each port. Hiking suggestions especially were great - trails to Mendenhall Glacier and Deer Mountain Trail were highlights for us. The background on wildlife and glaciers is very interesting and of course enhances the experience when you are actually seeing whales or otters up close. We have done quite a few cruises and I would highly recommend this book.

Frommer's Alaska 2009 (Frommer's Complete)
$19.99
Tracy Arm is by far the most scenic trip there is. On my trip I saw unbelievable calving glaciers, bears, humpback whales, killer whales, beautiful waterfalls and much more. I definitely recommend going to Tracy Arm. In fact, there is a movie on Tracy Arm called "Alaska, The Tracy Arm Experience". The film captures the beauty of this incredible place. [...]

I highly recommend Tracy Arm. If you get a chance, experience it yourself. And don't forget to buy the film too!

Alaska: Spirit of the Wild (IMAX) [Blu-ray]
$19.99
This disc has great HD quality. 1920x1080 as advertised. My Sony Blu-ray is consistently churning out 30-40MB of content per second. The reviewer who thinks it's not HD needs to take a lesson in HD.
However, something left to be desired on the audio side. One review already commented the LFE (Low Frequency Component) is not present which I agree. Overall sound is not quite theater quality.

As for the content: it's well shot, well scripted, well narrated. The iceberg crashing scene you will not catch it on HD anywhere else.
very entertaining and worth the money. Only downside: 1) animals scenes are great but need more geology 2) too short.
