"The Northern Japanese island of Hokkaido has abundant natural forests, clear lakes, and magnificent mountains. It is perhaps best known for its intense and brutal winters. Snow and ice make many parts of the island inaccessible and the local Sea of Okhotsk routinely freezes over. Michael Kenna has been photographing throughout Hokkaido, in these extreme conditions, for the past several years. The eighty-four photographs in this book are the result of his explorations. Beautifully printed on heavy, uncoated Japanese paper using special black inks, "Hokkaido" is bound in thin maple wooden boards and housed in a special slipcase." A pristine copy still in the shrinkwrap of the first printing housed in the publisher's slipcase, as issued.
