Michael D'Orso is the author of more than a dozen books, including Plundering Paradise, Like Judgment Day, Like No Other Time (with Tom Daschle), and Walking with the Wind (with John Lewis).
"D'Orso magnificently chronicles the ups and downs and dramas and comedies on the road, on the basketball court and in the village of Fort Yukon. Eagle Blue is at once a riveting sports story and an incredible exploration of the collision of cultures on one of the planet's few remaining frontiers." --Seattle Post Intelligencer "[A] heartfelt homage to a proud, indigenous people who hope to soar with their Eagles, a fleeting escape from the lives often battered by more than the Artic winds. [3 1/2 stars]" --People Magazine (Critic's Choice) "D'Orso, a veteran journalist, spent a season with [the Fort Yukon Eagles], attending every practice and game, and came back from the cold with a fascinating book." --Oregonian "The best book on Alaska since Jon Krakauer's Into the Wild." --Orlando Sentinel
