Book excerpt: "An adventurous Depression-era couple answered a recruiting ad for teachers in Alaska. Dick and Milly Webbs' lifelong Alaska exploration is chronicled in their letters and photos depicting Indian and Eskimo villages, gold miners, bush pilots, and life in 1937-1960s-era Alaska. Having a baby meant a 90-mile dogsled trip. Managing reindeer herds, hunting walrus and whales, and doctoring Natives were only part-time duties! Ready for "civilization," they managed a budding aviation business in Nome. Later, in Fairbanks, they became entrepreneurs and toured the world promoting Alaska. Shortly before he died, Dick reread his letters and revealed secrets he had omitted when writing them."--Amazon.com

Book Synopsis Walter Harper, Alaska Native Son by : Mary F. Ehrlander
Download or read book Walter Harper, Alaska Native Son written by Mary F. Ehrlander and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2017 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Walter Harper, Alaska Native Son illuminates the life of the remarkable Irish-Athabascan man who was the first person to summit Mount Denali, North America's tallest mountain. Born in 1893, Walter Harper was the youngest child of Jenny Albert and the legendary gold prospector Arthur Harper. His parents separated shortly after his birth, and his mother raised Walter in the Athabascan tradition, speaking her Koyukon-Athabascan language. When Walter was seventeen years old, Episcopal archdeacon Hudson Stuck hired the skilled and charismatic youth as his riverboat pilot and winter trail guide. During the following years, as the two traveled among Interior Alaska's Episcopal missions, they developed a father-son-like bond and summited Denali together in 1913. Walter's strong Athabascan identity allowed him to remain grounded in his birth culture as his Western education expanded and he became a leader and a bridge between Alaska Native peoples and Westerners in the Alaska territory. He planned to become a medical missionary in Interior Alaska, but his life was cut short at the age of twenty-five, in the Princess Sophia disaster of 1918 near Skagway, Alaska. Harper exemplified resilience during an era when rapid socioeconomic and cultural change was wreaking havoc in Alaska Native villages. Today he stands equally as an exemplar of Athabascan manhood and healthy acculturation to Western lifeways whose life will resonate with today's readers.
Book Synopsis Grand Adventure by : Benedicte Ingstad
Download or read book Grand Adventure written by Benedicte Ingstad and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2017-05-29 with total page 481 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1960, Helge Ingstad and Anne Stine Ingstad made a discovery that rewrote the history of European exploration and colonization of North America – a thousand-year-old Viking settlement at L'Anse aux Meadows, Newfoundland. In A Grand Adventure, the Ingstads’ daughter Benedicte tells the story of their remarkable lives spent working together, sharing poignant details from her parents' private letters, personal diaries, their dinner table conversations, and Benedicte’s own participation in her parents' excavations. Following young Helge Ingstad from his 1926 decision to abandon a successful law practice for North American expeditions through Canada's Barren Lands, Alaska's Anaktuvuk Pass, and the mountains of northern Mexico, the story recounts his governorship of Norwegian territories and marriage to Anne Stine Moe. The author then traces Helge and Anne Stine's travels around the world, focusing in particular on their discovery of the Viking settlement at the northern tip of Newfoundland. With Anne Stine as the head archaeologist, they excavate these ruins for eight years, while weathering destructive skepticism from academic peers, until indisputable evidence is unearthed and their find is confirmed. A remarkable look at a personal and professional relationship, A Grand Adventure shows two explorers' unrelenting drive and unfailing courage.
