If you enjoy Alaska and the outdoors and have a soft spot for wilderness memoir (as I do) you will probably enjoy this book about a middle aged guy and his teenaged daughter that visit Alaska three times (to build a cabin, to hunt in the winter, and to hike & paddle a river) and each time stay for several weeks.
I think I enjoyed this more because I know the area where they were and some of the characters (Heimo & Edna) from the show. By the end of part three, the river trip, I was bored and ready to be finished with the whole thing, but I suspect that's because I don't know much about paddling so much of the description about how to run rapids and line a boat were boring to me. You might love that part!
I was amazed and impressed by the author's daughter and how much she was willing and able to do at such a young age.
