Cook Inlet Historical Society Lecture

  • Porphyry Press PO Box MXY 22B Glennallen, AK 99588 (map)

Drawing on work for his new book, Cold Mountain Path, author and journalist Tom Kizzia will discuss the evolution of the Wrangell Mountains community in the half-century between the departure of the last copper train and the coming of the National Park Service. Kizzia's talk will weigh some of the larger cultural meanings of ghost towns and their importance to a fuller understanding of the Alaska pioneer narrative of development and success.
