Long Hard Trails and Sled Dog Tales is a memoir of sorts, an
adventure story to be sure, and a look at what it's like to follow
a winning sled dog team across thousands of miles of Arctic
wilderness. Award-winning author Helen Hegener hitched her wagon to
a star: The legendary four-time Iditarod and Yukon Quest champion
Lance Mackey, beginning with his bid for a fourth Yukon Quest title
in 2008. For the next several years she followed Lance and dozens
of other mushers, many of whom became close friends, across Alaska
and the Yukon Territory. She founded Northern Light Media, which
produced the DVD Appetite and Attitude: A Conversation with Lance
Mackey, and published the books Yukon Quest Album, All Alaska
Sweepstakes, Along Alaskan Trails, and others. But going beyond the
exciting sled dog races, she also gives readers the backstory of
her life as founder and co-publisher of a leading publication in
alternative education, and the riveting nationally-watched lawsuit
which cost her that business and much more; the 'long hard' part of
the trail...
A photographic exploration of Alaska's Matanuska Valley. The
founding, settling, and development, details about the Valley's
geography, geology, transportation, agriculture, mining,
recreation, tourism, and history. Highlighted by hundreds of
full-color photographs, this book showcases the many wonders of the
beautiful Matanuska Valley.
