Northroader. What the heck is a “Northroader”? Being from Missouri, I’m well aware of endearing terms like, “Redneck” but I had never heard of a “Northroader”. Everyone knows what a “Redneck” is. Or rather, everyone has preconceived ideas of what a “Redneck” is. But few know what a “Northroader is. Unless you live in Alaska. Are they people to be feared? Why do folks look as if you’ve committed a mortal sin when you say you live off the “Northroad”? Is there some kind of monster who lives on the “Northroad?” You might just find out that "Northroaders" and "Rednecks share the same passions. Do you dare travel the “Northroad?” Take a ride at you own risk!

Pamela Bruce narrates her own stories about real, colorful characters living at the end of the road in Nikiski, Alaska. The stories are simple and bring out humor and emotion, while comparing "Northroader" and "Redneck" behaviors. Pamela's narration about the funny and unusual events that take place among the folks in Nikiski,Ak and the folks in Sedalia, MO is good and so funny, you'll laugh until you cry!
