Mike Gordon the Naked Alaskan!

Naked Alaskan: The Rest of The Stories is Mike Gordon's 3rd book that completes an adventurous memoir trilogy including capturing a time in Alaska's history when money was flowing from the Alaska Pipeline to catapult a 1500 square foot shotgun bar into a world-renowned rustic saloon, Chilkoot Charlie's.

His first two books, Learning the Ropes and Dagnabit!, are focused on those times, while his third book, like the title says, fills in the rest of the stories. You'll find those on our Big Alaska Show Book Review Section.
