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.
