I came across Bonnie Rpose Ward's video on you tube recently, and discovered that she has written two books. The first entitled Winds of Skilak, the second Winds of Skilak The Continuing Saga. I ordered them from Amazon, and to my sadness, have finished reading both of them.
Bonnie and her husband moved to a remote Alaskan island, to build a cabin, live off the land, and their first home was a tent - with bears around
I thoroughly recommend both books.
