Northern Flights by Gerry Bruder. Floatplanes outta Ketchikan. Best written account of flying in SE Alaska murk, and the good days too, that I've ever read.
Never Cry Wolf by Farley Mowat, not strictly about aviation, but excellent capture of a time and place in Canada's far reaches. Beautiful, overlooked movie version also.
Nice question, thanks for asking it.
