Northern Narratives takes you to Sitka, Alaska, where the tides of history made landfall. Follow the first accounts of the Russian settlers and witness the transition of Alaska into American hands.
Learn about Sitka Sound's sunken ships, its resident volcano, and the town's animal sanctuaries: the Alaska Raptor Center and the Fortress of the Bear.
Spanning centuries, these tales reveal Sitka's historical significance and local folklore-one story at a time.
Read about:
- The Battle of 1804 and other significant skirmishes
- Influential Russian vessels like the Neva.
- Alaska trading hands and the Treaty of Cession
- The Raptor Center and The Fortress of the Bear
- The importance of Mount Edgecumbe
- And how to read the tales told on a Totem Pole
