"Alaska, the Great Country" is a 1908 novel by E. Higginson. Ella Rhoads Higginson (1862 - 1940) was an prominent American author famous for her award-winning poetry, fiction, and essays set in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States. She was a prolific writer, producing two collections of short stories, six books of poetry, a travel book, a novel, more than a hundred short stories, over three hundred poems, and many essays. Other notable works by this author include: "The Voice of April-Land and Other Poems" (1903) and "The Vanishing Race" (1911). "Alaska, the Great Country" is not to be missed by those with an interest in American literature and in the Pacific Northwest in general, and it would make for a worthy addition to any collection. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this classic volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition for the enjoyment of literature lovers now and for years to come.
