Read the sentences from page 4: “Alaska has long been a magnet for dreamers and misfits, people who think the unsullied enormity of the Last Frontier will patch all the holes in their lives. The bush is an unforgiving place, however, that cares nothing for hope or longing” (Krakauer 4).

The sentences give the implied evidence that

• The author feels Alaska is a perfect place to find peace.

• The author feels that Alaska is the perfect place for misfits.

• The author feels that Alaska is a place to carry out your dreams

• The author feels that Alaska is ruthless
