Item Description
Edited by Susan Fox Rogers
A remarkable gathering of original, true stories of adventure, work, life, and place in the last frontier. Through these twenty fresh views of Alaska, the wild place finds a voice of its own, and an unexpected Alaska emerges. Experience a woman's musk-ox hunting trip in the Arctic; the personal politics of a teachers' strike in Anchorage; the shifting social currents that develop when natives mix with newcomers; a harrowing sailboat race around Admiralty Island; and a fantastic encounter with elfin apparitions on a cold snowy night. Alaska demands a different mettle from its people, and these engaging essays express that robust spirit.
Ted Kerasote on the humorous side of surviving bush life; Migael Scherer on landscape, illness, and life; Frank Soos on the passage of time in an upside-down truck; Jessica Maxwell impersonating Isak Dinesen; and more!
