Great little book!

Headed for Fairbanks this summer. This great little book filled me in on history, landmarks, and lots of attractions I don't want to miss!

concise introduction to the "Golden Heart City"

I bought this as a primer for my (future) trip to Fairbanks. Some consider this frontier town, and not "Los" Anchorage, to be the "real" Alaska. The authors include interesting historical tidbits, demographics and myths. I've donated most of my books to charity, but this one's a keeper :)
