Publisher's Synopsis
The author started shooting and hunting at a tender age, and her love for both became a passion.
When she and her husband realised their dream of living in Alaska, her hobby became a necessity to eat and to protect herself. This young couple (later with a baby daughter) experienced isolation, survived with the barest of essentials, and came within a hair's breadth of becoming dinner themselves. The author became resourceful, brave, tolerant, and patient. But she was also rewarded by some beautiful scenery, some stunning and touching acts of nature and being a keen angler too, some wonderful fishing.
This is the story of her outdoor hunting and fishing life from a girl just old enough to fire a pellet gun in Montana, up to a grown woman taking down.
Storms, floods, gold mining, hunting caribou and big sheep, fishing for salmon the size of your whole leg, observing the amazing wildlife both animal and human.
