What is Looking for Alaska about?

"More than twenty years ago, a disillusioned college graduate named Peter Jenkins set out with his dog, Cooper, to look for himself and his nation. His memoir of what he found, A Walk Across America, captured the hearts of millions of Americans.". "Now Peter is a bit older, married with a family, and his journeys are different than they were. Perhaps he is looking for adventure, perhaps inspiration, perhaps new communities, perhaps unspoiled land. Certainly, he finds all of this and more in Alaska, America's last frontier.". "Looking for Alaska is Peter's account of eighteen months spent traveling over twenty thousand miles in tiny bush planes, on snow machines and snowshoes, in fishing boats and kayaks, on the Alaska Marine Highway and the Haul Road, searching for what defines Alaska. Hearing the amazing stories of many real Alaskans - from Barrow to Craig, Seward to Deering, and everywhere in between - Peter gets to know this place in the way that only he can. His resulting portrait is a rare and unforgettable depiction of a dangerous and beautiful land and all the people who call it home."--BOOK JACKET.
