Destination Alaska

The Great Land

Alaska is so close by and yet it has so much mystique and grandeur. This is true in the literature, too. Enjoy three novels that have received tremendous critical acclaim, both in Alaska and nationally. Each of them convey a strong vision of the Alaskan landscape and the Alaskan people. They also give historical context to the Great Land, from the Russian conquest of the Aleutians, to the Nome Gold Rush, and the consumption of Native culture into white America.
