Looking for Alaska is the most beautiful yet heartbreaking book I have ever read. On average I read one book per day, but I had finished this one in just under 4 hours. Right from the first chapter I was hooked - hook, line and sinker/5(K). Spanning alm years, this book is the definition of epic historical fiction. Beginning with the migration of mastodon and saber-toothed tigers from Siberia to Alaska across the Bering Land Bridge and continuing forward to the signing of the Alaska Statehood Act that made Alaska the 49th state in , the history of the nations largest state is laid out in surprisingly readable fashion/5.
