About Steve Levi (Anchorage, Alaska Author)
Steve Levi is a freelance writer and historian in Anchorage, Alaska. He has more than 80 books in print and on Kindle. His motto is "If you do not have something unique you have nothing at all." He specializes in unique stories -- nonfiction and fiction. As an example for nonfiction, he wrote the first book on the CLARA NEVADA, an Alaska Gold Rush ship that sank in 1898 and came back up in 1908 -- less 100,000 ounces of gold. For fiction, he invented the 'impossible crime,' a plotline where the detective has to discover HOW the crime was committed before he can capture the perpetrators. THE MATTER OF THE DESERTED AIRLINER
