To Kathy
Jean LaBarge stopped beside the trunk of a huge cypress, scanning the woods for Rob Walker.
May contain spoilers
They stood together, watching the flag flutter at the masthead, and listened to the dull boom of the guns out on the bay, and heard the echoes thrown back by the mountains, while on the ageless slopes of Mount Edgecombe the sun made a moment of glory.

SITKA


Majestically it rose from the icy waters, the gateway to the awesome wilderness of Alaska.  Even as he grew up hunting the dangerous swampland of the Susquehanna, Jean LaBarge felt drawn by the strength and beauty of that distant land.  Now a battle-hardened adventurer, Jean boldly faces the dangers of Russian-owned Sitka.  Those Russians who will violently protect their foothold on the continent move swiftly to destroy Jean - just as they have threatened Helena, the woman who challenged their treachery, the woman Jean desires.  Fired by Helena's courage and by the call of his country, Jean is ready for a fight - to win Alaska for America.

LOUIS L'AMOUR


Our foremost storyteller of the authentic West, L'Amour has thrilled a nation by bringing to vivid life the brave men and women who settled the American frontier.  There are now over 160 million of his books in print around the world.

  • I try to maintain page numbers for audiobooks even though obviously there aren't any. I do this to keep track of pages read and I try to use the Kindle version page numbers for this.
  • Synopses marked with an asterisk (*) were generated by an AI. There aren't a lot since this is an iffy way to do it - AI seems to make stuff up.
  • When specific publication dates are unknown (ie prefixed with a "Cir"), I try to get the publication date that is closest to the specific printing that I can.
  • When listing chapters, I only list chapters relevant to the story. I will usually leave off Author Notes, Indices, Acknowledgements, etc unless they are relevant to the story or the book is non-fiction.
  • Page numbers on this site are for the end of the main story. I normally do not include appendices, extra material, and other miscellaneous stuff at the end of the book in the page count.
