Dan L. Walker presents Letters from Happy Valley, Memories of an Alaska Homesteader’s Son Fifty years after leaving the family homestead in Happy Valley, Alaska, Dan Walker unexpectedly received a shoe box full of letters penned in 1958 by his parents as they traveled from Sugar Tree Ridge, Ohio, to build a new life on the Last Frontier. In Letters from Happy Valley, Memories of an Alaska Homesteader’s Son, Dan Walker rediscovers and honors his Alaska roots and the life lived before his father's untimely death, which instigated his family to move to Government Hill. “Emotional, unforced, and grounded, Letters from Happy Valley is destined to be an Alaska classic.”—Nick Jans, contributing editor to Alaska magazine and author of A Wolf Called Romeo “A literary triumph, Letters from Happy Valley demonstrates Walker’s unsurpassed ability to bring to bold life his family’s Alaska pioneering history in a manner both informative and riveting. It will be no surprise to me should this book become a beloved north land classic.” —Dan Seavey, author of The First Great Race: Alaska’s 1973 Iditarod Dan L. Walker has over thirty years in education and his consulting work has taken him throughout Alaska from Anchorage to Barrow and Perryville to Sitka where he works with principals, teachers, and students. He was named as Teacher of the Year for Alaska in 1999.

How the Great Lakes were formed. While a very cool story in and of itself (so much ice the winter king would wet himself with glee), the formation of the Great Lakes and the land around them informs all of the history we'll be covering this season.

We get into the piracy on the Great Lakes done during the Revolutionary period and move forward to it's role in the civil war.

Who needs parrots in a region with plenty of crows. The fresh water pirates of the Great Lakes provide a refreshingly fresh look at the traditionally scurvy salt water occupation of plundering piracy. It's all about aaaargggggitude in this podcast as we look at a rare form of piracy rarely discussed, a pirate king, dominant fleets that plundered far and wide, historic new directions and a boat stealing, cannon shooting, Yooper pirate captain - who couldn't lose for getting totally busted.

Listen to joke-boy Jack Grimes (@Jackapedia_) and actual-history-major Sarah Brody (@meattunic) break down a fun little piece of weird history every week on History Nugs, a show about when and why crazy things happen. From the tumultuous history of tomatoes to the anus of Louis XIV, nowhere in time is safe from Jack and Sarah's examination and goofs.
