  • The Hard Way Home: Alaska Stories of Adventure, Friendship, and the Hunt

    Steve Kahn

    eBook (University of Nebraska Press, Oct. 1, 2010)
    A lifelong Alaskan, Steve Kahn moved at the age of nine from the “metropolis” of Anchorage to the foothills of the Chugach Mountains. A childhood of berry picking, fishing, and hunting led to a life as a big-game guide. When he wasn’t guiding in the spring and fall, he worked as a commercial fisherman and earned his pilot’s license, pursuits that took him to the far reaches of the Alaskan wilderness. He lived through some of the most important moments of the state’s history: the 1964 earthquake (the most powerful in U.S. history), the Farewell Burn wildfire, the last king crab season in Kodiak Island waters, the Exxon Valdez oil spill and cleanup, even the far-reaching effects of the 9/11 attacks. The landscape of the essays in The Hard Way Home extends from the tip of Admiralty Island in the southeast to the Teocalli Mountains of the interior, from the windswept Alaska Peninsula to the author’s present home on Lake Clark. These essays offer a view of Alaska that is at once introspective and adventurous. Here we find the state’s plants, animals, people, geography, politics, and culture considered from an intimate perspective, leading to hard-earned lessons about conservation, sustainability, and living well. Ever the irrepressible guide, Kahn invites readers to share his experiences and discoveries and to consider questions about a place, and a life, that are disappearing.

  • Sawyer And Robbie: Sacred Gemstones

    Steve Kahn

    language (Tule University Free Press, May 23, 2019)
    Unlike the rest of his graduating class who have great plans for the future, Sawyer Bowen is going to the prestigious Tule University for one reason and one reason alone: his little tan doggie, Robbie.Their adventures take them through the old New England Ivy League campus, to secret underground cavernous passageways of the nearby 17th century cemetery where they meet spirits and witches, and then finally to an encounter with a warring tribe in a remote part of the Brazilian rainforest. Throughout it all, Sawyer embarks on a quest for his beloved little doggie in a world where simple beauty and true love have been all but forgotten. The cold modern world tries to pull them apart. It fights them at every turn.Sacred Gemstones is the first book in the Sawyer And Robbie coming of age series which traverses through ancient times and never-before seen places in the quest for forgotten secrets and lost ancient magic. At times playful and sexy, and others filled with ironic humor and biting satire, Sawyer And Robbie is fueled by love that drives the search of what is truly meaningful and for what living life truly means.Early reviewers of the pre-release have called it "Heartbreaking!", "Fascinating!" and "A book that had to be written."
