Description:

Homesteading in Alaska is quite an experience, and Richard Leo uses a perceptive, reflective, humorous narrative to tell about his log cabin deep in the Susitna Valley woodland. Not surprisingly, weather rules, with 25 feet of snow and 100-degrees-below-zero winter blizzards. Leo talks about 4,000 square miles of spruce and birch at his doorstep, the adrenaline rush of dog-sledding, contemplative summer treks, dragonflies lighting on his shoulder, almost finding gold, and why talking to dogs is easier and more productive than trying to talk to a 2-year-old.
