A WOMAN WHO WENT TO ALASKA
Sullivan
A Woman Who Went to Alaska
by May Kellogg Sullivan
Alaska has only been a state since 1959, and the breathtaking terrain
remains mostly unspoiled and natural. In modern times, many of us have
had the pleasure of visiting Alaska via a luxurious cruise ship, where we
enjoyed gourmet meals, amazing entertainment, and a climate-controlled
environment. It's easy to also book a land package that enables you to see
more of the country by train.
Imagine what it was like to visit the same wild, untamed countryside in 1899.
Instead of boarding a sleek, stylish cruise ship, you travel for weeks on a
steamer. You wait 2 weeks for the open, flat cars of the new railroad just to
assure yourself it can travel safely through the dangerous mountain pass.
No stately cabin or grand hotel awaits you at the end of your journey; you'll
spend your time in rough mining camps. Such is the case in May Kellogg
Sullivan's spellbinding and vivid account of her Alaskan adventures, which
occurred over 18 months during 2 solo trips covering 12,000 miles. This is
the perfect travel narrative to enjoy on your Alaskan cruise or in the comfort
of your own home.
