O knihe

This collection of tales is Kim Francisco's memories of his first summer working for the Alaska Department of Fish and Game's Commercial Fisheries Division in the Arctic-Yukon-Kuskokwim Region. His experiences ranged from mundane to life-threatening, comical to tragic. He found it so satisfying it led to a lifelong career in natural resource management. These events occurred primarily in 1973; however, the timeline occasionally jumps to reach the final conclusion. Fishermen are notoriously difficult to persuade, so fisheries management mostly deals with people, which was interesting in Alaska's cross-cultural life. Life-long friendships are formed, and romance is part of every 21-year-old's life. This is Mr. Francisco's first book, a dream of a lifelong reader/writer that was a long time coming. Kim is now 71 years old and a widower. His twenty-one years of service on the Iowa Natural Resource Commission, the longest-serving commissioner ever, has ended. His lifetime of public service has expanded his experience to include all public outdoor recreation activities.
