Douglas Anderson was born in England but has resided in Canada and the USA since 1967. Over the years his work in support of Industrial Gas Turbines took him to almost every Canadian Province and US State. Douglas resided in Alaska for a total of sixteen years. During that time he enjoyed flying his plane, hiking and prospecting for gold. His adventurous hiking into wilderness areas with a friend and mentor inspired him to write several books: Gold in Trib 1, Mystery in Trib 2, Lost in a Foreign Land, Representing, Reggie the Rocket and My Adventurous Friend. One More Clean Up, although the story is fiction, is inspired by actual time spent: flying, hiking and prospecting for gold in a remote wilderness area of Alaska in years gone by. Anyone reading Doug's books will notice there is a common thread linking all his books.
