Another Way Over: A Novel of Immigration to America
In pre-World War I Central Europe, Jan Brozek leaves for a better life in the U.S. As he travels through countries preparing for war, he meets a nobleman’s beautiful daughter - who threatens to steal his heart. And his plans become further complicated by an unexpected obstacle that turns a planned three-week journey into a two-year odyssey through three continents. Along the way, a series of traveling companions and their sometimes tragic, sometimes hilarious, lives and circumstances bring further complications to his quest for a life in America
The Harriman Alaska Expedition of 1899
In 1899, one of America's wealthiest men assembled an interdisciplinary team of experts--many of whom would become legendary in their fields--to join him, entirely at his expense, on a voyage to the largely unknown territory of Alaska. The Harriman Expedition remains unparalleled in its conception and execution. This book follows the team closely: where they went, what they did, and what they learned--including finding early evidence of glacial retreat, assessing the nature and future of Alaska's natural resources, making important scientific discoveries, and collecting an astonishing collection of specimens. A second thread involves the lives and accomplishments of the members of the party, weaving biographical strands into the narrative of the journey and the personal experiences they shared. This is the first comprehensive, scholarly treatment of the Harriman Alaska Expedition since the 1980s. It features the diaries, letters home, and post-Expedition writings, including unpublished autobiographies, generated by the members of the party.
