ReviewsSimply and uniquely filled to the bubbling brim with the good stuff, the really, really good, hard-to-find stuff of true pioneering grit, wackiness, and adventure... as well as a few secrets to taming the fabulous food that fueled the fervor: ALASKA SOURDOUGH!, "Love or hate the stuff, Ruth Allman will win you over... Her charming cookbook and collection of anecdotes, "Alaskan Sourdough" is a perennial best-seller... Her accomplishments are impressive, but there remains within the pages of Alaskan Sourdough a simple, lovely, crackling humor--sunshine and sweetness sprinkled in among the hardness that was her pioneering life."
