| Publisher Description: Just over twenty years after it was built by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the Alaska-Canada Highway (ALCAN) was still considered treacherous for civilian travelers. Yet, many people continued to brave the trip, north and southbound. Many had horrific tales of suffering and disappointment while others had stories of adventure and pleasure. Learn how a 36-years old African American USAF Staff Sergeant and his young pregnant wife and their five and three years old sons endured the trip for four days and nights. Discover the who, what, when, where, why and how "South by North - Down the ALCAN" happened. You may want to try it yourself - the book and the trip. |
