Four Fares to Juneau is a memoir by Marie Small that recounts her family's journey from Seattle to Juneau in a small boat. The book is a captivating tale of adventure, danger, and the bond between a family. Marie's family consisted of her husband, their two young children, and her father-in-law. The journey was undertaken in the 1950s, when there were no GPS devices, cell phones, or modern navigation systems. The family had to rely on charts, compasses, and their instincts to navigate the treacherous waters of the Inside Passage. The book is a vivid portrayal of the beauty and danger of the Alaskan wilderness. The family encountered storms, rocky shores, and wild animals during their journey. They also met friendly locals who helped them along the way. The book also delves into the challenges of living in a small boat for an extended period, including cooking, sleeping, and dealing with cramped quarters. Four Fares to Juneau is a heartwarming and inspiring story of a family's determination to overcome obstacles and reach their destination. The book is beautifully written, with vivid descriptions of the Alaskan landscape and the family's experiences. It is a must-read for anyone who loves adventure, nature, and family stories.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
