He surprised his guides by landing two-foot rainbow trout in the Kenai River. He also listened-and listened. Everywhere he went-Fairbanks, Point Barrow, Anchorage, Seward, Juneau, Ketchikan, Sitka, Metla Katla-Alaskans who had always wanted to tell the Secretary of the Interior what they thought of the Government proceeded...
