Description
By telling the tale of 1 race in detail, Firth follows the teams as they shuttle at the fractured ice of the Yukon River, through rugged, northern wilderness, over windswept mountains, in blizzards and bone-chilling cold. Yukon Quest shows in vivid detail the giant commitment concerned with taking good care of as much as 14 dogs in a team. The book also includes anecdotes from all of the races and a list of all of the mushers who have ever participated, in conjunction with race results.
