I was so honored to have been invited to review Michael Engelhard's "No Place Like Nome" for @thenorthernreview.bsky.social!
Nome is one of the places in Alaska I unfortunately haven't been (a little bit of personal lore I cover in the review) but Engelhard really makes it seem like I have.
Such a pleasant gift to receive just before the holidays. Absolutely taken aback to read a review of my book written by one of the leading scholars in the field of northern history and a champion of academic scholarship. Thank you, Ken Coates, for your deep and meaningful reflections on my book.
