I present for your consideration these following excerpts, free of any commentary or further analysis:

It is as throughout all Alaska that big wild good life teeming along the road that is north to the future.

That is what we get to see every day.

Now what the rest of America gets to see along with us is in this last frontier there is hope and opportunity and there is country pride.
