You should read this excellent book! It's a page turner.
It's about homesteading and a family dealing with their mentally ill father.

edit: Also, check out Prince of Wales Island in Southeast Alaksa. There's a lot of homesteaders out there and the living is a bit easier because the winters are less harsh. Plus, incredible fishing! I lived there for a few years and loved it. I'm going back for vacation in a week.
