Description

The Land of the Midnight Sun, Alaska, Our Last Frontier is a historical fiction novel, which begins in 1877. Nanuck is a fifteen-year-old Innuit boy, whose dream is to win Alaska’s most challenging dog sled race, the Iditerod. He trains for two years, and at the age of seventeen, his dream comes true. After four years of trying to find himself, he marries Nikki, a female musher. Their life together spans over a period of a hundred years, from generation to generation, evolving around adventure, romance, and murder, using bits of history to depict the passage of time.
