(From the back cover of the
book) How to be rich and broaden your world. You can do all with
a modest income. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. Be an adventurer.
Don’t delay – do it now!
 This book is about adventures in hunting,
fishing, camping, boating and travel in dozens of states and
countries. This book includes fishing guides for halibut, king and
sockeye salmon in South Central Alaska.
Bob Robb, Outdoor Writer: “Dennis is an
old-time hunter and guide who began adventuring in the outdoors
long before modern ‘conveniences’ and technical marvels. He did it
back when you needed old-fashioned woodsmanship skills and pluck
and the skills to extract yourself from perils large and small,
which to men like him were only an inconvenience and part of the
adventure, not the stuff of a TV mini-series. In this book he
shares these adventures in a pleasant, easy-to-read style that
reminds me of sitting around the old kitchen table, listening to my
grandfather. It’s a must read for today’s serious outdoorsmen.”
Jeff Bamat, PA: “If it hadn’t been for
Dennis (writing) I probably would have never made it to Alaska.
When Steve and I talk we mostly speak of hunts in Alaska even after
hunting all across the US and Canada.” Hunt of a lifetime now
repeated seven times.
 From
the Author: It is about 45% fishing, 45% hunting, 10%
related adventures: travel-camping-boating. It is written to
stimulate, encourage and motivate readers to make happy memories
that they can do on an average income and to entertain, educate and
inform readers of outdoor opportunities.
The adventures cover dozen of states and
countries over a 50 year period, 25 years in Alaska. It includes
the authors adventures, many other memorable stories and king and
sockeye salmon and halibut fishing guides for south central
Alaska. The book includes moose, caribou, bear, whitetail and mule
deer, elk, sheep, mountain goats, bison, muskox, boars, and many
species of African game and Mongolian maral stag. It includes
salmon, halibut, trout, marlin, dorado, bass and many others. The
main focus is on Alaskan fishing.
