Summary: Puts Alaska on your "must go" travel list
Comment: Well-written, insightful, educational, and entertaining. Funny without making fun of people. Really brings Alaska and its residents to life, providing a fascinating glimpse of the state unavailable to most visitors (i.e., way beyond the typical 7-night cruise ship experience.) I began reading it because of my interest in military history (the author was stationed there as an Air Force officer), but the quality of writing and greater focus on non-military experiences was a pleasant surprise. I now want to quit my job, pack my bags, and head immediately to Alaska.

Summary: A smooth, entertaining read
Comment: Sean's style and story-telling ability flow quickly, easily and smoothly. You're happy to go along for the ride, and during the trip you learn so much about one of the smallest, most unique cultures in this American sea of cultures, and about one of the most beautiful yet challenging places on the planet. Things you could learn only by living them. But just as importantly, you laugh as you watch him grow from cheechako to sourdough. A must-buy for anyone into reading humor, or about the military, or Alaska. Get it now!!

Summary: Land of the Radioactive Midnight Sun:
Comment: Sean Flynn writes with a wonderful style that reflects a great sense of humor and an intelligence and loyalty that are to be admired. He obviously had a keen interest in learning as much as he could about Alaska and Alaskans during his year with the Air Force at Eielson Air Force Base. His enthusiasm, despite some incredibly cold temperatures and some hair-raising experiences (if your hair could rise in that cold!) is contagious. Also, the book provides an education about the history and culture of this most interesting state! A most enjoyable read!
