License to Cook Alaska Style

Compiled by Larry and Shelly Carroll, an adventurous couple who live in Alaska, the collection includes recipes for halibut divan, Lucy’s salmon chowder, squash casserole, summer smoothie, cranberry-orange nut bread, and sourdough pancakes.

The book, with spiral-bound, index-size-card pages, includes a section on Alaska history.
