The whole life story of alaska and its statehood. great to learn about. grades 4-9 Reviewed August 2007 I just had to read something about Alaska, I know so little about the place we are about to cruise in. The author breaks up his narrative by region, the slate is so diverse it is amazing. I was surprised at the diversity. I was very interested in learning about battles fought during WWII in Alaska. Even more so after mom told us her brother Doss was stationed in Dutch Harbor during the war and was shelled there. I also found the story of Keating and his photographer George Mobley being stranded on Little Dromede for 11 days, starving until the village shot a walrus. The foods he ate in the Northern most part of Alaska were disgusting. They say people are the same everywhere and after listening in between the lines of what the locals told Keating. You can see the locals were upset about non-locals coming into town, buying up property and changing the town. I have heard this same lament all over during my travels also. 18-2007 ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
