Every highway has a history. Built as a post-war project by the Dominion and Alberta governments, the Mackenzie highway is still the most important overland link between the Northwest Territories and the rest of Canada. Completed in 1948, the Mackenzie was built by trucks, for trucks. Trucking North is a popular social history about truck transportation and its impact on the communities of Northern Alberta and the Northwest Territories. Richly illustrated with maps and 77 photographs.
This book is primarily about truckers and truck transportation on the Mackenzie Highway and its tributaries. It is also about other forms of northern transportation that are linked to trucking, and about northern peoples, communities, and industries that depend upon truck transportation for survival.

Trucking North
Hunting for something to read and "found" this book on my shelves--I'd bought it way back in 2001 in Skagway, AK-on a cruise we took. It was actually quite interesting. We took a train over the Chilcoot Pass, saw the Dead Horse Trail--so reading about what all endured, and especially the women going over with their long dresses, etc.--pretty amazing. I don't know how anyone would have wanted to live in that area during the Klondike Gold Rush!
