Marilyn Frink Jordan George's memoir tells of her Alaskan fishing family adventure from 1946 to 1986. Her story describes the history, wildlife, friendships, and hardships on the frontier.
"After a half-century in Southeast Alaska, and 30 years on the fishing grounds trolling for salmon, Marilyn George has packed a lot of fish and a lot of life into the hold. A true twentieth-century pioneer, Marilyn recounts the blessings and the trials of raising a family among the eagles and whales in a land of wood heat, wool long-johns, and deck-bucket bathrooms." -John van Amerongen, Editor Alaska Fisherman's Journal
