Frontier Alaska poetry written by a talented author who actually lived there. Ballads and other forms of verse telling tales of grizzly bear attacks, outlaw trappers, battle from the perspective of wolves, and the breathtaking splendor of a land that is yet to be tamed.
This book of Alaska poetry is written in the delightful spirit of verse masters like Robert W. Service and Ernest L. Thayer . It brings the reader into the world of hermits, prospectors and sourdoughs with a vintage storyteller manner not often seen anymore.
So pull up a seat, put your feet up, and enjoy the adventure!
Pete's life was just as about unusual as the poems and stories he writes including at one time having had a pet moose named Willy residing with the family. He met many sourdough miners, sidearms were commonplace where he grew up, and law enforcement was virtually non-existent regardless of the character of some of the folks that came into the area. The mail was a 5-mile sled ride to town, groceries were a 300-mile trip south, and school work in the bush was entirely correspondence. He was already carrying a .22 rifle by age eleven. By age 12, he was walking trap lines in the winter and mining gold with his father and brother during the short summers.
Over the years, Pete left Alaska and, due to serving in the military plus other life matters, he hasn't been back. Although he has left Alaska behind, his heart never has.
After many years of encouragement from various people, and the support of his amazing wife Yvonne, Pete has produced his first book of Alaska poetry written in the spirit of verse masters like Robert W. Service. If this book becomes successful, Pete may produce more volumes with some short stories as well.
Pete now lives quietly somewhere in the lower '48 with his lovely wife, Yvonne.
