Alaska: Love and Life in the Last Frontier

by Jane Donelly

Australian born author Jane Donelly took on the challenge of living within the Alaskan wilderness after falling in love with a tall handsome Alaskan man. This collection of short stories outlines her life as she makes Alaska her home. Sometimes adventurous, sometimes practical, the stories light up the unique world Alaska offers us. Donelly's passion for wild Alaska allows the reader to live vicariously as she builds a log cabin by hand, faces grizzly bears, and learns to mush with a team of huskies. The simple stories also connect us to Alaskan plant and animal life through hunting, harvesting, cooking, dyeing and sewing. If you have dreamed of a simpler life, if you have pondered leaving the city behind to learn how to live a subsistence lifestyle then these stories will offer insight into what it takes to call the last frontier home.

Great story about an Australian women whose journey to a life on the last frontier started with a visit to Alaska on vacation. How she fell in love with a man who lived in the bush... who taught to live and to survive in the bush.
