A sweeping multigenerational saga of the founding of the state of
Alaska by an iconic author with more than three hundred million copies
of her books in print.
Spanning two hundred years, this saga of romance and adventure in the
untamed Alaska wilderness begins with Tasha Tarakanov, a beautiful Aleut
woman, and her beloved Andrei, a noble and ambitious Cossack hunter.
From their union come seven generations of proud Alaskans, including the
beautiful Marisha, who finds her fortune as a legendary madam, and Wylie
Cole, who bravely defends his homeland during World War II.
Glorious and grand, The Great Alone is a story of brave young men and
women, whose dreams, heritage, betrayals, loves, and fortitude are as
vast and wild as the land from which they sprang.
