SOUTH

TO

ALASKA


From the Heartland of America
to the Heart of a Dream...

 
Book Signings, Slide Presentations, Workshops

Welcome!

Below is a schedule of South to Alaska book-signings, slide presentations and other events. 

Combined with brief readings from the book, my 45-minute slide presentation provides an overview of my father's journey and explains how a young boy's dream becomes a man's reality.

If you are in the Pacific Northwest area and would like a presentation to your group, please contact me at nancy@southtoalaska.com.  

Thanks,
Nancy
