Picking up where the best-selling IDITAROD CLASSICS left off, this new collection of insightful and hair-raising stories introduces readers to more of the men and women who brave Alaska’s annual 1,100-mile Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race from Anchorage to Nome.Champions Doug Swingley, Martin Buser, Jeff King, and others tell how they came to love the race, how they train their dogs and themselves, and how they challenge the harsh weather and conditions found in the Last Great Race.
