A Very Yukonomist Christmas: Twenty Years of Winter Wit and Wisdom

"Great fireside reading in any Yukon cabin. And handy in the outhouse too." >A Very Yukonomist Christmas is a warm, witty, and distinctly northern celebration of the holiday season from award-winning Yukon columnist Keith Halliday. For twenty years, Halliday's widely read "Yukonomist" columns have captured the quirks, challenges, and quiet joys of Yukon life. In this festive collection, he gathers his best Christmas writings-offering a uniquely Yukon take on everything from finding the perfect spruce in a land of endless wilderness to hosting "Outside" relatives who aren't quite prepared for forty-below temperatures. Along the way, Halliday reflects on gift-giving (yes, backcountry skis may be the ultimate expression of love), winter survival strategies, community traditions, and the small moments that make the season meaningful-even in the darkest days of the year. Whether you're a longtime Northerner or a curious Southerner, A Very Yukonomist Christmas delivers laughter, insight, and a generous dose of northern spirit. Cozy, clever, and full of heart, this is Christmas-Yukon style.
