    This is the best shipper I've ordered from! My book came in great condition with fast shipping. It was carefully packaged and even included a letter from the seller and a bookmark! Great experience. I'm already looking for more books from their shop.

    Captivating read based on factual history

    I enjoyed reading this book so much a few years ago, that I wanted to read it again and own this handsome hardback edition

  • Gets into the guts of how Alaska developed.

    Very long book with many details and historical facts that you will not find elsewhere. A family member read this a long time ago and has reread the book again after visiting Alaska. Loved it more the second time around.

  • Great book !

    Bought it for a gift for a person who once had this book. It had gotten misplaced/ lost between loaning it out and moving around. He wanted to read it again, so I decided to just buy him another book.

  • Living the story

    After spending more than a half century here it is great to visualize how it all began. Michener put it together in a way that is fitting for Alaska.
