Cold Hands Warm Heart

“The proper function of man is to live,
not to exist.
I shall not waste my days in trying
to prolong them.
I shall use my time.”
– Jack London

Champion musher Jeff King is a man who lives by those words. When King crossed the finish line of the 2006 Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race, he entered a small, elite club of mushers who have won the 1,000-mile race four times. And yet his record of victories in dozens of short- and middle-distance races, as well as conquering the challenging Yukon Quest International Sled Dog Race, placed King in a society of one: the ‘winningest’ musher in sled-dog sports history. From his scientific methods of feeding and training dogs to his calculating trail strategies and innovative sled designs, King has been the one to watch, year after year.

A natural-born storyteller as well as a gifted athlete, King shares a lifetime of adventure stories in these pages. Since the release of his first collection of trail stories, fans have been begging for “More!” And in this newly expanded second edition, they’re finally getting their wish – and a deeper look into a life well-lived.

Zig The Warrior Princess

Zig is the princess of the dog yard in this romping story about a hard-working, well-loved Alaska sled dog at Husky Homestead. How do we know she’s a favorite? Well, the boss lets her sleep in the cabin and ride in the truck cab. Spoiled? Never! Hear it from Zig herself, as she remembers puppyhood, training with the “big dogs,” and how she discovered she was born to be a warrior, not just a princess.

By Tricia Brown with Jeff King

Cold Hands Warm Heart, First Edition

Known as the Winningest Musher in the World, Jeff King remains one of the top mushers in the history of sled dog sports. Since his first race in 1979, King and his well-trained teams of Alaska huskies have racked up many thousands of training miles and trail hours. The result: win after win after win, crossing the finish line first in more than a dozen major races, including the two internationally known giants: the Iditarod and the Yukon Quest. In the process, King has also racked up thirty years of first-person stories that offer a glimpse into the heart of a champion, the rugged Alaskan lifestyle, and the charismatic world of dogs.

Stunning illustrations by Donna Gates in beautiful color and black and white. Also colorful photographs at the end of the book.

Telling the story of 10-time Rondy Champion George Attla’s childhood and rise in the sled dog racing community, “Spirit of the Wind” has been honored at numerous festivals, including the Sundance Film Festival, Cannes Film Festival and the American Indian Film Festival.

Attla, in collaboration with the community of Huslia, Alaska, established the Frank Attla Youth & Sled Dog Care-Mushing Program in 2012. He believed that sled dogs, mushing, and dog racing are deeply rooted in Native Alaskan culture and can empower youth and strengthen communities.
