      Set against the backdrop of Alaska's Bristol Bay in the early 20th century, the narrative unfolds through Joe Upton's recollections of an old timer's adventures. The story captures the journey of diverse workers aboard the Star of Alaska, as they establish a cannery amidst a harsh but breathtaking landscape. Upton's own experiences as a fisherman over two decades reveal the allure of the region and the challenges faced by those drawn to its commercial fishing opportunities. This memoir vividly chronicles the enduring spirit of Alaska's fishing culture.
