Description

MT. MCKINLEY, ALASKA 1932 From the south peak, a hundred thousand square miles of Alaskan wilderness stretched out before his eyes. This was America’s last land frontier. It was the land Grant Pearson had dreamed of as a boy and lived in, full, as a man, when he came to be known as one of Alaska’s most famous 20th century pioneers. This was how to chose to live his LIFE OF HIGH ADVENTURE... “Exciting, vivid...an excellent account.”—Hal Borland, New York Times
