The only land available lay north of Fairbanks near the Arctic Circle where grizzlies outnumbered humans twenty to one. In addition to fierce winters and predatory animals, the Alaskan frontier also drew society's more unsavoury elements. But through it all, the family survived on the strength of Norma Cobb - a woman whose love for her family knew no bounds and whose courage in the face of mortal danger is an inspiration.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 210mmItem Length: 140mmItem Weight: 271gAuthor: Norma Cobb, Charles W.
