This collection is a very fun read, especially for anyone who's either spent time in Alaska or is considering a trip.
The stories here originally appeared in Alaska Traveler magazine, and are short, easy-to-read vignettes of the author's experiences in various towns and remote locations around the great state of Alaska. Filled with outdoor adventure, quirky local characters, and all sorts of charm, the stories are greatly entertaining and offer a taste of the many different aspects of life in Alaska.
I haven't quite made my way through the entire collection, but I've read quite a bit (and as much as I feel like reading at the moment). This is one of those books that I'll keep handy (and queued up on my Kindle) for when I need distraction while waiting on line somewhere, sitting in a doctor's office, or otherwise in need of a quick but tasty drop of reading. It's perfect for dipping into, and can be read in small chunks with no need to worry about continuity.

Yeah. So Alaska was already on the must do list and now it's cemented in. I can see I will reread this book a number of times and make extensive notes when a trip gets closer. A great little free book this was.
