Hardcover. First edition. Tall octavo. 202pp. Fine in slightly rubbed and smudged near fine dust jacket. Inscribed on the dedication page by the dedicatee: "To my dear friends Rosemary and Bill. Teddy Wilcox." We do not know the relationship of the author to the dedicatee, but most like Teddy is a member of his immediate family. Account of Alaskan adventures by an Idaho-born and educated supervisor of a large construction firm in Alaska. From the jacket: "As manager of heavy construction in Alaska for a large international construction firm, Paul L. Wilcox was witness to the great military buildup taking place in Alaska in the late 1950's. But most of all, this book is a tribute to the construction stiff-to those men come from all over the world to work the Big Jobs, men whose minds, sweat, muscle, and bone have been the making of modern Alaska."
