8Take one feisty female senior citizen, a changing cast of passengers and one or two Boston Terriers and take the trip(s) of a lifetime on the road from Phoenix, Arizona to Anchorage, Alaska via the Alaska Highway. The book is part journal, part travelogue and part guide for anyone contemplating driving to Alaska. Numerous photos document the sights and stops along the way on routes through the West and Southwest of the "Lower 48," the spectacular countryside of western Canada and the Yukon, and into the Great Land of Alaska itself. A veteran of four round trips, with and without passengers, but always with at least one dog, the author provides a unique perspective on this, "the best road trip ever."
