From the Shores of Ship Creek

These are the stories of the people who made Anchorage over its first 100 years - the adventures, tragedies and triumphs behind the city's growth from railroad construction camp to northern metropolis and crossroads of commerce and culture. Richly illustrated with photographs provided through the generosity of the Alaska Dispatch News, the Anchorage Museum, and private collectors, From the Shores of Ship Creek celebrates the city's centennial with the energy and verve of the city itself.
