Got this book as a kid and have reread it many times over the years. Love the stories and glimpses of life in rural Alaska. Nice thing about the ebook over my very worn paperback is that there was an epilogue/authors' note added in 2017. It's only a few pages but gives a brief update on how the Collins' are doing and some of the changes in their lives in the decades since the events of the book. Hope they find the time to write a follow up some day.

Is this the most polished book ever? No. Is it a training handbook? Also no. But it’s nice and comfortable and about living in the wilds with animals, so I loved it.
