In Pursuit Of Alaska

Jean Morgan Meaux lived in Anchorage from 1971 until 1985 and, while freelancing for the Anchorage Daily News, began work on this book. After attending Tulane Law School, she stayed in Louisiana to raise her three children and to practice family law. In 2009, she opened the cardboard box containing her Alaska manuscript and began writing again. During the summer, she and her husband live in a cabin near Haines, Alaska. In the winters, they grow heirloom vegetables on their farm in the Louisiana countryside. Jean's greatest love, second only to her family, is the Alaska wilderness. She is presently at work on a novel set in the late 1800s.
