Two Alaskans is a wonderful collection of Bill and Lily's real life adventures in mining camps and on hunting and fishing trips. It is about strong family life, frugal and resourceful business people, city government, and parade floats. As Bill said, "That's the way life was. It was just life." It was the life of Bill and Lily -- Two Alaskans. Bill and Lily is the story of Two Alaskans in the Last Frontier. They have been a part of nearly eight decades of Alaska's history. Bill and Lily's stories of their lives in Alaska begin as teenagers, through territorial days, and young statehood. Their adventures are unique and entertaining as are their lives of energetic pioneers in the new state of Alaska. These Two Alaskans have produced a wonderful collection of experiences during Alaska's frontier days, beginning in the early 1900s and continuing to the present day.
Bill and Lily have opened their wonderful lives for the reader to enjoy and respect. Many of the stories reflect the typical Alaskan family doing the exceptional things we do. But consider the span of nearly 100 years for both Bill and Lily, and what a great blend of traditional values and modern day growth and adaptation! And the best of all... How Honest!!
