More about the book
This book continues the life adventures of the last federal homesteader in America, focusing on the year 1987, which follows the closure of the Federal Homestead Act of 1862 in October 1986. It explores the construction, struggles, and accomplishments during this pivotal year, including encounters with the Hairy Ones—peaceful, bashful beings often mischaracterized as monsters. Duane Arthur Ose, the author, was born in Minnesota and served in the army as an engineer in Korea. He met his second wife, Rena, through a mail-order bride system; she lived with him in a dugout for nine years while they built their log home. The couple primarily lives off the land, gardening, using solar power, and trapping, with Rena handling the skinning. Duane is a survival expert adept at thriving in extreme conditions and is a sought-after speaker on topics like rural living, homesteading, and Alaskan life. He has also authored another book detailing a journey in search of a new home in the Alaskan wilderness.
