MERE INFO
This book is a compilation of short stories about close calls in Alaska involving the author and his friends and family. Written in a humorous fashion, it conveys the apprehension, excitement, and relief involved in life-threatening adventures. Experience how a relatively small mistake can become a major problem in the remote Alaska bush. Bell takes the reader on adventures throughout the state with a unique cast of characters who never seem to lack questionable judgment or bad luck. You will encounter airplane crashes, bears of every size and shape, extreme weather, vicious fish, malfunctioning boats, and a host of other challenges. These stories will give you insight into how rugged, and how fun, life on the last frontier can be for some people. The theme of the book is that Alaska has lots of tools to kill you with, and she has tried most of them on the author and his friends. They survived, mostly by luck, certainly not by their wits. Keep in mind as you read this book that these are true stories involving real people, many of whom are still around to tell their stories.
