Our Alaska Many influential visitors have written about Alaska, among them John Muir, John McPhee, and James Michener. In OUR ALASKA, award-winning writer and editor Mike Doogan forges an eclectic collection of stories both charmingly simple and thoughtfully profound, from a variety of Alaskan writers. These are real stories: among them tales of the solitude of Lake Minchumina; growing up aboard a fishing trawler; being a "tourist herder" near Nome; the rich, powerful meaning of the Koyukon Indian "Hutlani" code; a black man's fateful decision to pass up a lucrative job in Washington, D.C., in favor of what Alaska offered his family; a woman's emotional memories of flying to Juneau to see her father after her parents' divorce; the notion that riding the state ferries in Southeast may be the "calmest form of public transportation in the U.S."; an activist's view of how Alaska came to grips with its oil development; and the importance of berry-picking to a city dweller. |
