In 1979, I set out to find a place on Earth that could compare To The early days of my youth on the wind-swept, desolate Outer Banks of North Carolina. I was looking For The simple, honest lifestyle of the hunter, trapper or fisherman - people known as "Perimeter Men" - those who prefer to live on the edge away from the luxuries of civilization. I wanted to find those who had not yet lost the values of the Golden Rule. I chose the people of the far north coast of British Columbia, Alaska And The Yukon Territory. There are still remote, little villages tucked back in the wilderness that have been saved from progress and people who live with the values I hoped to find. ONCE MORE THE WIND is the story of that odyssey. it takes the reader from the wrecks of old sailing ships that were my playhouses on the Outer Banks - And The seafaring folks who lived there - To The vast, green wilderness of the Far North. it covers my travel in a small sailing sloop with a young college man, up the storm tossed coast of British Columbia, into Alaska and then onto a 500-mile drift down the Yukon River from Whitehorse to Dawson. it tells of the return of the gold prospector at a time when prices were in the highest in history - $800 an ounce. it depicts the way America used to be. ONCE MORE THE WIND will thrill those who missed the great adventure of discovering the land when it was new.
