True North in Alaska: Memories of Indians, Eskimos, Bush Pilots and Us

0/5 ( ratings)

An adventurous Depression-era couple answered a recruiting ad for teachers in Alaska. Dick and Milly Webbs’ lifelong Alaska exploration is chronicled in their letters and photos depicting Indian and Eskimo villages, gold miners, bush pilots, and life in 1937-1960s-era Alaska. Having a baby meant a 90-mile dogsled trip. Managing reindeer herds, hunting walrus and whales, and doctoring Natives were only part-time duties! Ready for “civilization,” they managed a budding aviation business in Nome. Later, in Fairbanks, they became entrepreneurs and toured the world promoting Alaska. Shortly before he died, Dick reread his letters and revealed secrets he had omitted when writing them.
