This is the best book ever written about Alaskan bush pilots. Helmericks has been a pilot in Alaska since 1946 and is a master guide with the Alaska Game Commission. A born storyteller; he describes flying blind through fogged-in mountain passes; landing by pontoon on remote glaciers; and setting down on lonely sandbars. This book is an important document of Alaskan history and a thrill for any hunter; fisherman; or pilot.--This text refers to the Paperback edition.
