The Trail of 42: A Pictorial History of the Alaska Highway

by Stan Cohen

We can thank, in part, the cooperation of the United States and Canadian governments for building the road and bringing it to the condition it is in now for the tourist traveling to Canada and Alaska. it has undoubtedly vastly increased the modernization of the North Country, which may in fact be considered a sin to some of the old-timers in the area.

It was a good book, a quick read. Of course it had lots of pictures and I felt like I was 5 years old. But it's okay. That's what I wanted to do. Very informative, my dad had a friend who was part of the initial army attachment that built the pioneer road so I had some personal connection to the book.
