Alaska - the Great Land, the Final Frontier. Its grandeur and rigor are such that you do not change Alaska - it changes you. This book of poetry captures the author's fifteen years living in the state. It speaks to the majesty of Alaska's setting; the self-reliant, determined Alaskan people; and the soaring heights of the total Alaskan experience.
