A frequent traveler to Alaska, Freedman believes the Iditarod is one of the world’s great sporting events and only wishes the dogs could talk so he could better write their story. www.LewFreedmanBooks.com Jon Van Zyle has been the official artist of the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race for more than thirty years and has run the race twice.
