Alaska Where Only the Tough Survive

Alaskan Wilderness Stories - After forty-odd years of wandering the trackless mountains, sailing the turbulent seas, scaling towering mountains and braving the terrors of saloon filled with drunken fishermen and loggers, Robert Parish compiled the tales that fill this book. You ll find that most of the adventures were the result of circumstances that many have seem trivial at the time. Some were the result of over-confidence, some carelessness and some were foolhardy. Underlying it all is the every-lurking, ever-ever savage Alaskan weather that can sweep in so viciously and so unexpectedly. Parish wrote these epics in courage to honor the Alaskan spirit, the indomitable will to survive and the tenacity displayed by each of the players.
