Reseñas de la Crítica

Praise for Alaska

“Few will escape the allure of the land and people [Michener] describes. . . . Alaska takes the reader on a journey through one of the bleakest, richest, most foreboding, and highly inviting territories in our Republic, if not the world. . . . The characters that Michener creates are bigger than life.”Los Angeles Times Book Review

“Always the master of exhaustive historical research, Michener tracks the settling of Alaska [in] vividly detailed scenes and well-developed characters.”Boston Herald

“Michener is still, sentence for sentence, writing’s fastest attention grabber.”The New York Times
Comprehensive History • Educational Storytelling • Soothing Voice • Interconnected Characters • Rich Historical Detail

terrible narration

It is historic novel at its best. The actual people are (mostly) fictional, but they present in very involving way the history of remote and special piece of land. They also give witness (sometimes credit sometimes quite the opposite) to human nature with its stubbornness, power of will and selflessness as much as with its cruelty, selfishness and criminal single-mindedness. It is very poetic. And well read (yes, the pace is slow but in this case it helps the story, at least in my opinion).

Great story well told

Would you consider the audio edition of Alaska to be better than the print version?

In regards to the negative opinions of the narrator, I agree you have to get used to the almost monotone of the voice. But I encourage you to continue listening as he reads a story to you that is filled with unforgettable facts and characters. Excellent.

Great listening to Michener

Michener weaves history, geography and other educational themes with interesting stories of some of the people who inhabited and traveled to Alaska during the span of many generations. He intertwines stories of adventure, fortune, love and loss intricately, yet with a simplicity that makes it easy to. understand. The narrator reads this book in a quiet soft voice which makes it a perfect evening relaxation activity.
