2018 Alaskana Award from the Alaska Library Association2018 Alaska Historical Society James H. Drucker Alaska Historian of the Year Award Walter Harper, Alaska Native Son illuminates the life of the remarkable Irish-Athabascan man who was the first person to summit Mount Denali, North America's tallest mountain. Born in 1893, Walter Harper was the youngest child of Jenny Albert and the legendary gold prospector Arthur Harper. His parents separated shortly after his birth, and his mother raised Walter in the Athabascan tradition, speaking her Koyukon-Athabascan language. When Walter was seventeen years old, Episcopal archdeacon Hudson Stuck hired the skilled and charismatic youth as his riverboat pilot and winter trail guide. During the following years, as the two traveled among Interior Alaska's Episcopal missions, they developed a father-son-like bond and summited Denali together in 1913. Walter's strong Athabascan identity allowed him to remain grounded in his birth culture as his Western education expanded, and he became a leader and a bridge between Alaska Native peoples and Westerners in the Alaska territory. He planned to become a medical missionary in Interior Alaska, but his life was cut short at the age of twenty-five, in the Princess Sophia disaster of 1918 near Skagway, Alaska. Harper exemplified resilience during an era when rapid socioeconomic and cultural change was wreaking havoc in Alaska Native villages. Today he stands equally as an exemplar of Athabascan manhood and healthy acculturation to Western lifeways whose life will resonate with today's readers.

Excellent monitor!!! Be aware that it does not have internal speakers.
Size: 24 inch 100Hz
Beautiful image. This monitor is excellent and I am very happy with it.
However, you should be aware that it does not have any internal speakers and it does not have any audio input. It does have audio output for external speakers or headphones. For me, this was not a problem since I use a USB external speaker for better clarity.
The lack of internal speakers was a surprise to me, but I suppose since the lack of speakers mentioned in the product description should have tipped me off.

Works as it should
Size: 24 inch 100Hz
I started a new job a few months ago and I get to work from home one day a week. They do not pay for you to set up a home office however, so I was looking for a cheap monitor for part of my set up. I came across this one and decided to try it out.
I work in client service for a finance company so a lot of what I use it for is email, other conversational programs, and then our custodian software. I’m not doing anything crazy. I have it connected to a name brand laptop and it was very easy to set up with no issues. It turned right on.
The picture quality is nice. Again, I’m not doing editing or anything on this so it works for what I need. It does NOT have speakers, so I do need to use the speakers on my laptop( which can be annoying), but again it’s not a deal breaker.
I have been using it now for 5 months and it’s been working really well for my set up. I am thinking of getting a second monitor and I would get another of these but also I do want a speaker so I don’t know that I would get this exact version.
For the price, if you are looking for something basic for normal work from home needs, this does the trick!

pretty good
Size: 24 inch 100Hz
Philips' 24-inch Frameless Full HD Monitor has the same type of attraction that the sleek lines and frameless edge provide as the utility that the product provides in terms of work and entertainment. Frameless edge helps provide the fashionable and streamlined appearance, while the 23.8-inch display provides the Full HD (1920x1080) resolution that creates the crisp images that are ideal for daily usage.
Establishment and Link:
Installation of the monitor is usually simple and easy, and the process is not difficult to complete and comprehend by the user. It includes one HDMI and one VGA socket in order to support most equipment. It lacks internal speakers, yet external speakers or headphones must be utilized if one desires sound output from the monitor.
Performance
It has the feature of supporting up to 100Hz display refreshes for smoother graphics when doing regular computing tasks. While good enough for general applications, there were comments that said that accurate color calibration to function is problematic and that this is one area that needs investigating if you're doing high accuracy color precision tasks.
These include:
A. Design
Aside from the frameless feature, the monitor also impresses by being light in weight and having a sturdy base. The stand itself is also adjustable so the user has the opportunity to tilt to the convenience. VESA mounting support is also included on the monitor for the convenience of the user who would want varied mounting options. Reddit
Conclusion
Philips 24-inch Frameless Full HD Monitor offers the perfect form and function blend at the unbeatable price. Easy installation, two ports for connection, and the slim profile make it perfect for those consumers who require a no-frills monitor for general computing use. Purchasers will have to balance the fact that there are no speakers built-in and potential differences in the accuracy of the color calibration to decide if the display is perfect for their specific requirements.
