About the Author
Kaylene Johnson is a writer and long-time Alaskan who makes her home on a small farm outside Wasilla. She has an intimate knowledge of Sarah Palin as a neighbor and biographer. Her articles have appeared in Alaska magazine, the Los Angeles Times, and many other publications.
From the Back Cover
Who is Sarah Palin? In SARAH, we learn that she is a former Wasilla High School basketball star, ex-beauty queen, and one-time journalist who wears a killer smile, designer glasses, and high heels. She rides in a 2,000-very-cold-mile snow machine race every year called the Iron Dog. She has filled more than a few freezers with moose that she shot herself, and she prefers caribou steaks to beef tenderloins. Her husband is part Alaska Native, a roughneck on the North Slope, and the family fishes commercially each year on Bristol Bay. Last but not least - as her adversaries learned painfully - she has the political instincts of a seasoned pro and an independent streak a mile long.|
