Where the Williwaws Blow

1950s Alaska! What would it be like? Discover the answer that a young, twenty-one year old Carol, her husband Rod, and their fifteen month-old son, Hal, encounter in fascinating glimpses of an adventurous life on their homestead in the wilderness. Funny and sad, harrowing and heartwarming, this lively memoir brings to life the everyday challenges of a modern pioneer living without electricity or running water. Meet friends and neighbors, and laugh at outlandish escapades of this self-proclaimed "transplanted city girl." Informative and often witty, Carol sketches word-pictures of a ruggedly beautiful but harsh land where the williwaw winds blow, and its inhabitants.
