Has anybody read this book? The caption on the website reads almost like a real estage agent's drivel:
"Imagine flying through wildly unpredictable weather conditions and over the unforgiving terrain of the Big Empty, with only yourself to rely on in life and death situations. This type of true grit adventure was a common occurrence for Alaska bush pilot Mort Mason, who encountered numerous white-knuckle situations while honing his skill--and his luck--in a profession that only a handful of pilots have had the stamina to endure. Flying the Alaska Wild is a heart-pounding, edge-of-the-chair collection of fascinating stories about the rough-and-tumble life of an Alaska bush pilot--straight from the pilot’s seat. Recounting thirty years of adventures, skilled storyteller Mason presents tales of his own experiences, and also tells the legendary stories of other old-time bush pilots. "
....and does anyone know if Mort Mason is for real??

I think I posted about this book a while back. Title: Wings over the Wilderness, Adventures of the Alaska Bush Pilot Paul Shanahan. It is a real good book 
about Paul who lives up at Iniakuk Lake with his wife. He is still flying. Lots of good stories and it is written by a Super Cub Driver! I didn't think Cub drivers could write? 
here is the link to the book.
