Book excerpt: Togo wasn't meant to be a sled dog. He was too feisty and independent to make a good team member, let alone a leader. But Togo is determined, and when his trainer, Leonhard Seppala, gives him a chance, he soon becomes one of the fastest sled dogs in history! His skills are put to the ultimate test, though, when Seppala and his team are called on to make the now-famous run across the frozen Arctic to deliver the serum that will save Alaska from a life-threatening outbreak of diphtheria. In the style of Akiak, winner of the Irma S. and James H. Black Award for Excellence in Children's Literature, along with five state awards, Robert J. Blake's detailed, carefully researched oil paintings complete the story of the adventure that inspired the internationally famous Iditarod race.

Book excerpt: The history of Alaska would be very different without the criss-crossing trails of thousands of dog teams, for the story of the Last Frontier was in large part written behind a team of sled dogs. 'Alaskan Sled Dog Tales' shares the important history of sled dogs in the Territory of Alaska, and how dogteams were an integral part of events such as the 1925 Serum Run to Nome, explorations of the land before there were roads or railroads, and the thrilling adventures of legendary mushers such as Leonhard Seppala, Harry Karstens, Jujiro Wada, 'Iron Man" Johnson, Arthur Treadwell Walden, the 'Malemute Kid, ' and many others. Included are stories such as Alaskan mail carrier Eli Smith's epic trip to Washington, D.C., Alaska Nellie's daring rescue of a lost mail carrier, the Rev. Samuel Hall Young's 1913 trip over the Iditarod Trail, and Territorial Judge James Wickersham's 1901 dogsled trip down the frozen Yukon River from Eagle to Rampart. Dozens of old photographs and postcards showcase the history, along with the entire booklet published by Esther Birdsall Darling in 1916, titled 'The Great Dog Races of Nome.' This thin but important booklet details the first eight years of the All Alaska Sweepstakes race, from 1908 to 1916, when the great race made household names of 'Scotty' Allan and Leonhard Seppala. And the dogs! From Baldy to Balto, Togo to Wolf, Chinook to Rembrandt, these are the dogs who blazed across Alaskan trails and into the history books. From the fiercely-argued conflict between sled dogs and reindeer, to the hundreds of thousands of dollars in gold the dog teams hauled along the Iditarod Trail and others, to the one time in sports history when Alaskan sled dogs raced in the Olympics, this book captures the fascinating stories of the brave and intrepid dogs of the north.

Book excerpt: For centuries, sled dogs pulled the people of northern climates over otherwise impassable distances of snow and ice, guiding them home through trackless wilderness. These burly, strong dogs were the lifeblood of the northern winter world. Today, from races like the famed Iditarod and the John Beargrease Sled Dog Marathon to sled dog tours, people from all climates are rediscovering the joy of this dog-powered sport. Born to Pull is a celebration of sled dogs who love to run in cold and snowy Minnesota, including lively stories from veteran mushers, insider information on dog care and training, and breathtaking watercolor illustrations that make the dogs come to life on the page.
