"The most comprehensive and enjoyable guide to traveling the highway, from British Columbia up to Prudhoe Bay. Covers Fairbanks, Anchorage, Denali National Park, Valdez and much more. Filled with inside tips on where to see wildlife, the sites you shouldn't miss, the best places to camp. You'll also find information on sidetrips along alternate highways the Top-of-the-World, the Haines, the Stewart-Cassiar, the South Klondike, the Richardson and the Glen. A one-stop resource for Alaska-bound travelers. Includes a detailed chapter on the Alaska Marine Highway, the ferry system that is one of the best ways to see and reach otherwise inaccessible areas. While the Milepost will give you every pullout and scenic view on the highway, this book is great reading about what to do, and what to see on your way. The information is very accurate and interesting. In this book, when you look up a certain place you end up reading on and on." -- customer
"I recently rode my motorcycle up the Alaska Highway and space was pretty limited. I photocopied pages out of various other books, but brought this one along intact. It stayed in my tankbag every day, was brought out at every meal, and was pored over in hotel rooms at night. I'm also a writer, and my Adventure Guide to the Alaska Highway became my de facto notebook on the trip--post-it notes of every color peek out from its pages; notes line the margins. There are a finite number of places to stop along the Alaska Highway; most guidebooks will give you pretty much all of them. What makes this one different is its tone. The authors obvious enjoy both the road and writing about it. Personal anecdotes are lightly sprinkled into the text, giving the impression that yes, the authors know what they're talking about. I learned little bits of history about the areas I rode through; not so much that it weighed down the book, but just enough to pique my interest and send me scampering to the library once I got back. Also, the book is laid out very well. The font is easy on the eyes; bold section headers made it easy to find what I was looking for, even while balancing the book on my tankbag after pulling to the side of some gravelly road in the middle of nowhere." --Carolyn Boyce, reader
"If you think you'll ever want to plan a trip either by car or motorcycle to the great state of Alaska, this book is a must-have. Not only does it provide everything you could ever ask for, it comes in a small package that packs away nicely." --"Big D" (reader)
"I took this book with the AAA guidebook on my trip to Alaska, read the AAA intro on the plane there and read only this book for the rest of the trip. We traveled more than 2,000 miles on the Alaska Highway. This book has been a great companion and guide book wherever we go. I even did some more reading on the plane back home because the writing was interesting. It may be partly because Alaska is such an interesting subject; but the book is definitely fun to read." -- customer
The guide is now loaded with color photos!

I thought the 2010 publication date meant it was an update close to that date however this is the 4th edition which the print copy shows as a 2006 publication. This coincides with updates that I found missing such as the Dawson Creek Alaska Highway House (not listed,opened in 2007), a great museum about the building of the Alaskan Highway and Mukluk Annie's, a well known and well liked RV park and restaurant (listed but was closed in 2009).So..I was hoping for something current within a couple of years and got something 6+ years old.
All that said, the book is still an extensive presentation about traveling to Alaska and related parts and very good in information on history, wild life, nature, and many of the sights and stops. It has a humorous bent to it in places which I appreciate and the Kindle edition is easy to pack along. Just be forewarned of the apparent age of the last update and don't use it as your sole reference of where to go and what to see. This could be a good supplement to a current copy of the Milepost.

Alaska Highway Adventure Guide Travel Adventures eBook Lynn ReadickerHenderson Ed ReadickerHenderson Reviews
Well organized guide for travel to Alaska. It helped me ask better questions of the people that have traveled there.
Definitely a must have if you plan on driving thru Alaska!
I was expecting a guide book, yes, but not this boring version. The Alaska Highway is amazing, beautiful, raw, sparsely populated people-wise but chock full of wild critters which have the run of the place. You would never get that from this book. A better buy would be The Milepost, with a mile by mile guide including villages, condition of the roads, what to look for and where. Or have a great friend who is an Alaskan.
