    Seller never shipped the item. Seller lied after I contacted them 2 weeks after buying the item. Had to get ebay to step in to get refunded. Several items listed like the one I tried to buy disappeared after I contacted ebay. Do not buy from this seller if they are still around it is a scam.

    USPS showed seller never shipped item. Seller initially said item was damaged in shipping and would send a new one, then stopped responding. Was forced to get Ebay to refund purchase. Would not recommend this seller.

  • 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.
