Iditarod Glory - Hardcover

Known as the Last Great Race, the Iditarod Sled Dog Race ignites the spirit of adventure in people throughout the world each March. Media from nearly every continent descend upon Alaska to cover this 1,049-mile legendary race through the frozen wilderness of the North. In "Iditarod Glory" we see the best photos from a man who has dedicated himself to this race for 25 years. His evocative photographs capture every aspect of the race from the pre-race frenzy on 4th Avenue, Anchorage, to the finish in Nome. Rare, behind-the-scenes photos that only the official photographer could capture are also included. An essay by journalist and musher Brian O'Donoghue celebrates the spirit of the men and women who run the race, their incredible dogs, and the thousands of volunteers who truly make this event the Last Great Race.

Jeff Schultz has lived in Alaska since 1978. His images have appeared in numerous publications including National Geographic. Brian Patrick O'Donoghue is a journalist, musher, and author of two books about mushing. He lives with his wife, two sons, and dozens of dogs in a forest cabin in Two Rivers, Alaska.
