Sam O. White, Alaskan: Tales of a Legendary Wildlife Agent and Bush Pilot

Sam O. White was a tough, deep-voiced, six-foot-tall, two-hundred-pound former Maine lumberjack and guide. From 1922, for half a century he criss-crossed wild Alaska by foot, with packhorses, dog teams, canoe, riverboat, and airplane. He helped map the Territory. He trapped fur. He became the world s first flying game warden. White wrote exciting tales about his Alaska adventures. Those writings make up the bulk of this volume.
