Description
A memoir of heartbreak and transformation, this book tells the story of Kristin Knight Pace's journey across Alaska's wild landscape. After a crippling divorce, she took up residence at a friend's cabin outside Denali National Park to care for her eight sled dogs. There, she discovered a newfound sense of strength and resilience. As she learned to survive in one of the most remote places on earth, Kristin fell in love twice - first with running sled dogs, then with Andy, a gentle man who had also moved to Alaska to heal his own broken heart. The couple married and started a sled dog kennel, but Kristin's determination soon turned to completing the Iditarod, the 1,000-mile dogsled race from Anchorage to Nome. This book is a story of renewal and transformation, about journeying across a wild landscape and finding inner peace, courage, and a true home.
