A doorway to the early north, a lyric map of ice, coastlines, and the human heart. Alaska, The Great Country gathers Ella Higginson's nation-tilting verse into a fresh light, inviting readers to walk the edge of a vast, untamed landscape. This poetry collection illuminates frontier life and the Alaska landscape with a precise, musical attention to nature imagery and the rhythms of the pacific coast. Higginson's lines braid the ache of the Alaskan frontier era with enduring human questions, offering both intimate scenes and sweeping vistas that speak to poetry readers, literature students, and anyone moved by old american verse. The poems' clarity and lyric depth make it accessible to casual readers while still rewarding careful study. Historically significant, Higginson's work stands as a bridge between regional, pacific northwest writing and the broader arc of american poetry. The poems become a record of mood and place-an authentic voice from a distinct time and setting-yet they resonate with contemporary sensibilities about landscape, work, and wonder. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions, this edition is more than a reprint-it is a collector's item and a cultural treasure, restored for today's and future generations. A must for both devoted fans of pacific coast poets and newcomers to american poetry who crave room to roam across arctic light, frontier life, and the expansive spirit of this nation.
