Good Company: A Mining Family in Fairbanks, Alaska

"Good Company is a vivid and compelling story of life in early twentieth-century Alaska. During the lean years of the depression through World War II and Vietnam, Sarah Isto's family made a home in "company housing" in the small mining town of Fairbanks. With a wry sense of humor and an eye for detail, Isto tells of the courtship and marriage of her parents and her own Fairbanks childhood, weaving rich descriptions of daily life and northern living into her story. Good Company celebrates the joys and challenges of family life on the Alaska frontier."--BOOK JACKET.Sarah Isto is the author of 'Good Company: A Mining Family in Fairbanks, Alaska', published 2006 under ISBN 9781889963884 and ISBN 1889963887.
