O'Donoghue tells what happened when he entered the 1991 Iditarod, along with 17 sled dogs with names like Rainy, Harley and Screech.

Narrated with icy elan and self deprecating wit, this is a true story of heroism, cussedness, and astonishing dumb luck | My Lead Dog Was A Lesbian by Brian Patrick O'donoghue, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
