Sky Pilot of Alaska

By Fern Royer Owens and Royer Fern Owens

Book Overview

Sky Pilot of Alaska is a memoir written by Royer Fern Owens, detailing his experiences as a missionary in Alaska. The book is set in the early 1900s, during a time when Alaska was still a remote and rugged territory, largely inaccessible by road. Owens recounts his adventures as a pilot, flying his small plane to remote villages and settlements, bringing medical supplies, food, and other essentials to the people living in these isolated areas. Owens also describes his interactions with the native Alaskan communities, and his efforts to spread the Christian faith among them. The book is a fascinating account of a bygone era, and provides readers with a unique perspective on the history and culture of Alaska. It is a testament to the courage and determination of the early pioneers who helped shape the state into what it is today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
