Fifty-Five Years in the Alaskan Bush: The John Swiss Story

Rating:
Summary: The John Swiss Story
Review: This book is a fasinating story about the life style of living an adventureous bush life in the Alaska wilderness. It is a book that you can pick up and read at one time as I did, or you can read it a chapter at a time. The book is a series of stories told in a reflective manner of experiences of making a living in the Alaska wildeness by trapping, guiding hunters, subsistance hunting and fishing, commercial fishing, raising a family and flying as a commercial bush pilot in the state of Alaska from the 1950's to the present. The author Jeff Davis has written this book so that it captures these stories in a presntation that reflects them being written as you would be listening to John Swiss recant his stories and memories in his own words from a long unique life of making a living in bush Alaska. I would highly recommend this book to anyone that loves adventure and especially hunting.
