POCATELLO 鈥� 色花堂app alumnus Chris Carlson recently published a new book 鈥淓ye on the Caribou,鈥� which tells the story of the critical role former four-term Idaho Gov. Cecil D. Andrus played in securing the historic 1980 Alaska lands legislation.

Carlson, the long-time former-press secretary to Andrus, believes 鈥淓ye on the Caribou鈥� will provide previously little-known pieces of information to future historians.

Examples Carlson noted included a 1978 summer trip Andrus and former-President Jimmy Carter spent along Idaho鈥檚 Salmon River where the pair strategized for Carter to use his authority under the Antiquities Act to make the largest national monuments in history, a secret meeting between Alaska Governor Jay Hammond and Andrus in 1979 and the 1980 crossover vote coordinated by late-Senator Ted Stevens to defeat senatorial colleague Mike Gravel in the Democratic Primary.

Previously, Carlson produced the well-reviewed biography 鈥淐ecil Andrus: Idaho鈥檚 Greatest Governor鈥� in 2011, as well as the 2013 book 鈥淢edimont Reflections鈥� in 2013 which consisted of 13 essays detailing other issues and political figures Carlson worked with in his 40 years of public involvement. Carlson graduated from ISU in 1970 with a Master of Arts degree in English.

鈥淓ye on the Caribou鈥� is available for $16.95 at Amazon.com, directly from the author or directly from publisher Ridenbaugh Press at Ridenbaugh.com.
