Description
This all new interactive e-book unlocks the treasures of Sitka, one of Alaska’s most picturesque towns but with a history that belies its modern serenity. The Russians and Tlingit people lived together on these shores in the early 1800’s but it was an uneasy peace that soon exploded into battles led by fierce native warriors. In these pages you can explore historic sites from that time. St.Michael’s Cathedral and the Russian Bishop’s house. Castle Hill where Russia transferred Alaska to the United States in 1867 and today’s tranquil paths of Sitka National Historic Park where totem poles blend into the forest. More of Sitka’s treasures include the spectacular Sheldon Jackson Museum, the Sitka Sound Science Center and the remarkable Alaska Raptor Center that rescues hundreds of injured wild birds each year. This unique book, complete with photos, interactive maps and informative narrative will help you discover the special places that make Sitka such a fascinating place to explore.
