About the Author:
A former Marine fighter from upstate New York, Jay Hammond headed north after service in the Pacifin during World War II. He became a trapper, bush pilot, fisherman, guide, government wolf hunter, poet, environmentalist, and finally a reluctant politician who endeared himself to Alaskans. He gave them what he describes as the unvarnished and sometimes unwelcome truth about public issues. For this, he says, Alaskans punished him by electing him governor twice.
Review:
CHIPS FROM THE CHOPPING BLOCK could be regarded as literary seconds, but a second helping of Hammond is almost as good as the first go-around...[it] makes fun reading. --Fairbanks Daily News-Miner
Jay Hammond has led an amazing life, and his writing is full of self-deprecating, gentle good humor... --Alaska Journal of Commerce
Filled with frank, candid, unvarnished honesty and with wit, humor, and keen feeling for the Alaskan soil, wilderness, cities, and people, CHIPS FROM THE CHOPPING BLOCK is very hearty autobiographical and observational entertainment and highly recommended reading. --Midwest Book Review
