Book Description
Excerpt from Alaska-Yukon Caribou A favorite method of ca turing caribou was by means of snare fences (pl. 2, A).

To Alaska for Gold

Pages : 274
Book Description
Excerpt from To Alaska for Gold: Or the Fortune Hunters of the Yukon The rush to the far-away territory of Alaska, when gold in large quantities was discovered upon Klondike Creek, was somewhat similar to the rush to California in years gone by. The gold fever spread to even the remotest of our hamlets, and men, young and old, poured forth, ready to endure every hardship if only the much-coveted prize might be secured. That many succeeded and that many more failed is now a matter of history, although of recent date. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
