Summary of james campbell's the final frontiersman

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 I visited Heimo Korth in Alaska in 2002. He and his family were the only subsistence family I knew in Alaska. They lived almost strictly off the land. I was impressed by their independence. #2 Heimo ferries me back to the cabin in a sled behind his Ski-Doo snowmachine. We cut through a maze of willows and then dip down into a creek bed. After a quarter of a mile, we climb the creek bank and Heimo stops the snowmachine. #3 Heimo's cabin is situated far away from any trees, which makes it hard to build a cabin. But its location is its biggest asset. To the north, thick black spruce and to the south, a 1,000-foot hill protect it from the frigid winds that pummel this landscape. #4 The Korths' cabin is no larger than a conventional suburban kitchen, ten by sixteen, four steps across, six and a half steps long. It is small in a climate where heat is precious. Edna has decorated the walls with the girls' artwork, and next to their sleeping platforms the girls have tacked up photos from teen magazines.
