Imagine that it’s 1927 and you are a 19-year-old woman who wants to teach and craves challenges in a faraway place. Would you have what it takes to survive in a tiny, remote Alaskan village named Chicken? This memoir, dictated to the writer nearly 50 years later, relates a story worthy of Hollywood. Themes of survival, racism, and courage carry the reader through the amazing true story of Anne Hobbs. Tisha is easy to read and impossible to forget.
