Much to my suprise this books covers several routes to GET to the Alaska Highway as well. The book has a lot of insite on the RVing aspect also. It had great pictures and fun little facts and tips on almost every page.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good, but needs maps
This is a good overall guide to the Alcan, with almost all the information you need on the vehicle, the roads, history, etc.

The author seems to be an avid fishermen, so this topic is well addressed.

He also devotes a huge chunk of the book to the various routes to Dawson Creek. You don't buy this book for a guide to driving from the myriad...

This is a good overall guide to the Alcan, with almost all the information you need on the vehicle, the roads, history, etc.

The author seems to be an avid fishermen, so this topic is well addressed.

He also devotes a huge chunk of the book to the various routes to Dawson Creek. You don't buy this book for a guide to driving from the myriad locations in the US to Dawson Creek. That's a different topic.

Little or no attention was given to hiking, mountain biking, or winter travel.

The major shortcoming was its lack of maps. A travel guide without good maps is, well, unacceptable.

I enjoyed reading this book & learned a lot from it. I plan to ride my Harley to Alaska from Texas in the next couple of years, so I really needed the information. It stirred my enthusiasm for the trip even more.

We are considering a trip (drive) to Alaska with our RV and I wanted to start reading about the journey. After looking at all the book reviews, I ordered this book along with the Traveler's Guide to Alaskan Camping. It had a lot of good information, and I am satisfied it will help us start thinking about our trip preparations.
