Adventure Guide to the Alaska Highway
By: Readicker-Henderson, Lynn; Readicker-Henderson, Ed
Published by: Hunter Publishing
The far north was once a land feared by many, traveled by few. Now it's the kind of place people travel hundreds of miles to visit. This quiet sanctuary of quiet rivers and lakes that come in all shades of blue and green, is also home to some of the most unusual wildlife in the Americas – caribou, bison, whales, musk oxen. This is the most detailed guide to traveling the Alaska Highway, a road that is a feat of engineering in itself. The authors detail all the major towns along the way from British Columbia through the Yukon to Alaska and Prudhoe Bay, including Fairbanks, Anchorage, Dawson City, Skagway, and more.

Neville Shulman is the author of Some Like It Cold and Zen Explorations in Remotest New Guinea. He is a Fellow of the Explorers Club and of the Royal Geographical Society.
