From the Author
As the visitor to Alaska travels out of the cities and into the ninety-nine percent of Alaska that is wilderness, he may well see some Alaskan Wild Life. With luck, he'll see some animals, too. With this book, as with my others, my first objective was to portray a true picture of an aspect of the Alaska I love... and, of course, to entertain.

Not a professional publication,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Alaskan Wild Life : Humorous Perspectives on Life in the Bush (Paperback)
This book seems like it may be a self published tome. Numerous spelling and grammar errors detract from the vignettes of this slim volume. I expected more and higher quality for the money.
