I've always had dreams of visiting Alaska, but those dreams have cooled somewhat in recent years.  Now that I've read Ms Stabenow's book of essays, that dream is again calling to me.This book  is written with Dana's typical style, humor and grace.  Throughout some of the chapters I am imagining Ms Stabenow in these stories, climbing when she had vowed newer to sleep under a tent again, rushing around trying to buy baby mukluks and being distracted and her way with words just paints such a picture that I can clearly *see* everything just by reading this.Perfect for the traveler and the arm-chair traveler both.  And if you are a fan of her fiction, then this will just be adding depth to the whole experience of reading her Kate or Liam books.I know that if I ever get the nerve to travel so far, I will surely be bringing this book with me and visiting some of the places Dana did.  Not only because they sound so wonderful to visit, but because I want to brag to my friends that I've visited places that Dana, my favorite author, has recommended!
