About the Author

Alicia Loveland, a fourth generation Alaskan, was born in Palmer, Alaska. At the age of eight, she moved to Cantwell where her parents homesteaded. Over the years, she listened to family stories and decided to incorporate those stories into her own homestead story and share them with others. As an adult, she worked in Anchorage as a flight attendant and for oil companies. Her dream was to travel and after travelling through 38 countries, she settled in Wyoming where she resides with her husband, Ron. Every summer, they return to Alaska to spend time on the old family homestead, visit family and friends, and enjoy Alaska.
