Full Description
Anyone curious about what drew people like Christopher McCandless (of "Into the Wild") and John Muir to Alaska will find nuanced answers in "Frontier Romance", Judith Kleinfeld's thoughtful study of the iconic American love of the frontier and its cultural influence. Kleinfeld considers the subject through three categories: rebellion, redemption, and rebirth; escape and healing; and utopian community. Within these categories she explores the power of narrative to shape lives through concrete, compelling examples - both heart-warming and horrifying. Ultimately, Kleinfeld argues that the frontier narrative enables Americans - born or immigrant - to live deliberately, to gather courage, and to take risks, face danger, and seize freedom rather than fear it.
