A tribute to the perserverance and courage of Hopewell Rands, a woman who often found herself in far-from-ideal conditions, in Depression-era Alaska, yet always managed to make the best of any situation and help her family to find the bright side of every dark cloud. The family endured many hardships at first, as they struggled to get their feet on the ground, but they stuck together through the boarding-house days, through building their own log cabin, being evicted by the US Army at the start of WWII, living in rat-infested warehouse, and many other "adventures." A compelling collection of true stories, many of them humorous, all of them illustrating what one very determined person can accomplish, all of them encouraging and hopeful.
