YOU CAN'T WALLPAPER MY IGLOO: Tales of Living and Teaching in the Alaskan Wilderness

eBook
ALASKA! Get a glimpse of TANANA, before "YUKON MEN", and of HOMER—"THE LAST FRONTIER" before radio,TV, HDTV, cell phones and computers changed things forever. YOU CAN'T WALLPAPER MY IGLOO gives you uncommon insight into wilderness life in Alaska—where few have dared to tread—before reality shows and the Internet had their impact on the Eskimo and Indian cultures of the 49th state. Follow a young, newly married teaching couple as they take culture shock, contrary events, extreme temperatures, and the antics of their students in stride. When you're lost in a blizzard, have to come up with a creative lesson plan, or don't know how to skin out your dinner, a sense of humor is not only helpful, but required to get you through. At the end of the day, you can feel your character building.Other books by the author: MRS. JONES STEPS OUT OF BOUNDS, ASSISTED MURDER, MURDER GOES A-HUNTING, and MURDER GOES TO AUCTION, and a historical novel set in Alaska: SEND ME YOUR STRONG.
