Including facts and figures on geography, history, economics, sports, cultures, and people of the Last Frontier, this information-packed volume is a must-have for Alaskans and visitors alike. Celebrating its thirtieth birthday this year, this handy little guide is chock-full of Alaskana, from the beautiful to the bizarre. As always, the wit and wisdom of Mr. Whitekeys continues to delight readers with his wacky-but-true Alaska factoids. Mr. Whitekeys The Kids from Nowhere The Story Behind the Arctic Educational Miracle by George Guthridge Softbound, 5" x 8" 328 pages ISBN 978-0-88240-651-0 Retail Price $16.95 From the world-award-winning writer comes the gripping, true story of a group of Alaskan Eskimo students who, despite nearly impossible odds, achieve one of the most stunning educational feats in the history of American education. "Nowhere Kids" George Bryson—Anchorage Daily News "Putting Gambell on the Map" Monica Bradbury—Anchorage Press The Double Musky Inn Cookbook Alaska's Mountain Cajun Cuisine by Bob and Deanna Persons Hardbound, 7" x 9" 176 pages, 56 B&W photos, 150 recipes ISBN 978-0-88240-619-0 Retail Price $19.95 Built in 1962, the Double Musky Inn began as an after-ski bar. Customers cooked their own steaks over a fire in the dining room and ate their food on picnic tables. In 1979, after the struggling inn had passed through several owners, Bob and Deanna Persons bought the restaurant. With training and advice from Paul Prudhomme and his staff, the Persons started to make a name for their little restaurant. The Double Musky began featuring a menu of steaks and seafood with an emphasis on spices and seasonings with a New Orleans accent. Favorable reviews from national magazines, newspapers, and travel guides began to appear and most recently the Double Musky was named one of the Top 10 restaurants in America by the Food Network’s Jill Cordes and has been featured on CNN World Wide. Other praise for the restaurant has appeared in Bon Appétit, Fodor’s Travel Guides, Honolulu Magazine, Chicago Tribune, San Francisco Chronicle, New Orleans Times-Picayune, New York Times, and many other publications around the U.S. "Best Restaurant: Deux Respect" Sarah Henning—Anchorage Daily News "Double Musky Cookbook is Delectable" William J. Tobin—The Anchorage Times "To Tease Your Tastebuds" Forrest Schroeder-Einwiller—Anchorage Press "Cajun Cuisine in Alaska?" Kimberly Orsborn—Mount Vernon News Running with Champions A Midlife Journey on the Iditarod Trail by Lisa Frederic Softbound, 5 3/8" x 8 3/8" 224 pages, 14 B&W photos ISBN 978-0-88240-616-9 Retail Price $14.95 A vacation turned Lisa Frederic’s life upside down. She and her husband traveled as tourists to Nome, Alaska to see the end of the Iditarod Sled Dog Race. At an age when her life felt fairly settled, suddenly she found herself obsessed with a whole new world. The Iditarod and sled dogs had been vague concepts before the vacation, but very quickly dog mushing and a dream to run the Big One, became both a goal and a frightening commitment. Never described as graceful, learning to drive a team of huskies at forty years old was sometimes funny, but more often terrifying. The puppy team she trained went on to become champions – winning the 2006 Iditarod with Jeff King – but they were champions long before they won trophies. A tale of unconditional puppy love, this is also an inspiring story about setting goals, facing fears, and accepting challenges. Lisa's self-effacing account will speak to all those who have ever followed their heart and found that the dream realized is even bigger than the one they imagined. "Gee! Haw! Holy Crap!"
