Description

“Take care of the bike and the bike will take care of you.”

The day after his high school graduation in Mt. Shasta City, California, Jack Iverson set off on his own for Alaska and a job at a fishing lodge near Denali National Park. His ride was a Honda Shadow, and his journey was 3,242 miles through the rugged and beautiful terrain of the Alaska Highway.

Along the way, Jack’s encounters with people, nature, life and death were all part of his greater journey from youth to adulthood.

Once Jack reached the fishing lodge, his adventures didn’t stop. From swimming with a grizzly to moose encounters, from horse riding challenges to helping fight a wildfire…it was a summer that would change him forever.

Fathom Publishing Company

Fathom's goal is to publish quickly while paying careful attention to what is special about each book. We give personal attention to our authors and aim to make them proud to show off their publications. Early Years, Alaskana Connie Taylor formed Fathom Publishing Company in 1981 to publish books about Cordova, Alaska. Our first books were Cordova Fire Chief Dewey Whetsell's And the Fire's Not Green and Rose Arvidson's Cordova The First 75 Years. Next followed a coloring book by Cordova artist Mike Anderson, Coloring Alaska's Cordova. Nancy Ross and Mike Anderson collaborated on Cordova's Historic Buildings which included pen and ink drawings of old Cordova buildings and their history.
