Through time, tales both oral and written have immortalized America's last wilderness. Editor Wayne Mergler scoured Alaska's literary tradition for the best writing the state has to offer, and did not come up empty-handed. From the Native legends of the Creation, to Jack London's stirring stories of frontier survival, to John Haines's more contemporary reflections on homesteading, The Last New Land gathers a rich and comprehensive sampling of fiction, nonfiction and poetry about the Northland.
