Mr Alaska the Chuck West Story,
By
This review is from: Mr. Alaska, the Chuck West Story: Forty Years of Alaska Tourism, 1945-1985 (Hardcover)
A must read for those interested in the history of Tourism in Alaska. Only thing missing is an update of the last twenty years, especially if one considers that the author is alive and has his hand on the pulse in the tourism business. Wonderful story of a man driven to adventure and the outdoors going back to his early days in Los Angeles, followed by WWII flights over the Himalayas. Easy reading - the history of tourism in Alaska is interesting...........
