Description

With natural story-telling ease and wit, Brad tells his story of growing up in an isolated, northern gold rush town, surrounded by his family’s many huskies and malamutes. It was an innocent time, when imagination was king, and the wilderness was a playground.

This was the era when kids ran free when they weren’t in school, and Brad and his buddies knew how to have fun. With self-deprecating humor Brad describes their childhood adventures:

• fishing

• fort building

• swimming

• sneaking into old buildings

• hooky bobbing

• braving the terror of his own haunted house

• and so much more

The author combines his own memories with the tongue-in-cheek published writings of his mother to describe the Northern existence in a tight-knit community. Hunting, fishing, trapping, and mushing were all part of everyday life. He tells of average life and average people, who did extraordinary things that pushed their boundaries and took them out of their comfort zones. In doing so, it made them anything but average.

The reader will enjoy this moving and adventurous romp through a unique childhood.

Fathom's goal is to publish quickly while paying careful attention to what is special about each book. We give personal attention to our authors and aim to make them proud to show off their publications. Early Years, Alaskana Connie Taylor formed Fathom Publishing Company in 1981 to publish books about Cordova, Alaska. Our first books were Cordova Fire Chief Dewey Whetsell's And the Fire's Not Green and Rose Arvidson's Cordova The First 75 Years. Next followed a coloring book by Cordova artist Mike Anderson, Coloring Alaska's Cordova. Nancy Ross and Mike Anderson collaborated on Cordova's Historic Buildings which included pen and ink drawings of old Cordova buildings and their history.
