Alaska: Where the Long Trail Led: Chronicles of a Transplanted Okie

By Robert Ferrin Gilmore

Alaska--Where the Long Trail Led chronicles the many facets of a small-town boy's life during the 1930s Great Depression and how his wanderlust steered him in many directions--from a high school dropout "bindlestiff" to an accomplished artist and illustrator. The long trail led Robert Gilmore from Oklahoma's tornado alley to Alaska where he endured the Great Alaska Earthquake. He eventually realized a boyhood dream of exploring the virgin north country and of building a log cabin in the wilderness. The last 45 years have been one continuous adventure as Robert found his real home in the Great Land.
