Learning to Like Muktuk: An Unlikely Explorer in Territorial Alaska

Penelope S. Easton learned to “make do” with what she had and developed a spirit of adventure that was essential in preparing her for work in Territorial Alaska as a child of the Great Depression. The epilogue of the book describes her returns to Alaska as a member of research teams from 1996 through 2005. She now resides in Durham, North Carolina. At the age of ninety-one, Learning to Like Muktuk is her first book.
