Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A collection of twenty stories showcasing the supernatural legends and unsolved mysteries of Southeast Alaska, with a focus on the region between Yakutat and Petersburg, where the author has lived his entire life, writing, teaching, guiding, commercial fishing, and investigating ghost stories. Each chapter is rooted in Bjorn’s own adventures and will intertwine fascinating history, interviews, and his reflections. Bjorn’s writing, sometimes poignant and often wickedly funny, brings to mind Hunter S. Thompson and Patrick McManus. Chapters touch on legends such as Alexander Baranov, Soapy Smith, James Wickersham, and the Kóoshdaa Káa (Kushtaka) to lesser known but fascinating characters like “Naked” Joe Knowles and purported serial killer Ed Krause. From duplicitous if not downright diabolical humans to demons of the fjords and deep seas and cryptids of the forest, Bjorn presents a lively cross-section of the haunter and the haunted found in Alaska’s Inside Passage.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the story of the fifty-year adventure of one man's shooting and wilderness education and how it evolved into what it is today. It started in 1958 on the south shore of Long Island, advanced through Upstate New York, North Carolina, Georgia, Alaska, California, Africa, New Zealand, and, currently, back to California. Every incident in this book is true, thus allowing the author the luxury of being both opinionated and, perhaps, a little unorthodox in his odyssey. It is filled with great humor, bone-chilling dangers, high triumphs and devastating tragedies.

Book excerpt: This thesis examines the meaning and use of narratives of spirits in the settlement of Scammon Bay, a Central Yup'ik community of about 500 people on the southwestern shore of the Bering Sea in Alaska. I contend that Scammon Bay people's narratives of spirits make powerful statements about the well-being of, and disorder in, the world. These stories illustrate how spirits are responsive beings who are part of Scammon Bay's sentient environment. I argue that they are aware of, and reactive to, human actions and people's moral failings. Most residents consider telling and listening to stories about their nonhuman neighbours an empowering act through which they shape the behaviour of themselves and those around them, while indirectly commenting on their own experiences within the settlement's history of colonial domination. I hypothesise that narratives of spirits provide healing measures for community members by offering a means to articulate their modern-day social ills in a non-disruptive fashion, thus strengthening Yupiit's resilience in circumstances of rapid social change. By analysing the connection between storytelling and culture change, this thesis explores the ways that the people of Scammon Bay use narratives of spirits to find meaning, understanding, and hope in their lives.
