Togo is not given any credit in this book. Only Balto. Togo ran further than any dog on the Iditarod. It is not fair to Togo or Seppla that Balto and Gunnar get all the glory while another true hero, and more, hang in the shadows. I am sorry, but this book is simply not true unless the other teams, or at least Togo, gets credit.
