Land Gone Lonesome

Alaska resident Dan O’Neill set off from Dawson, Yukon Territory, in a canoe to trace the majestic Yukon River. His journey down river to Circle City, Alaska, is more than one man’s voyage into northern wilderness; it’s an expedition into the history of the river and its land, and a record of the inimitable and little known inhabitants of the region. O’Neill blends natural history and human history into a piece of brilliant literary travel writing
