Book Description
Excerpt from The Gold Fields of Cape Nome, Alaska: Entered According to the Act of Congress, February 23, 1900, in the Office of the Librarian of Congress, Washington, D. C This book is published as a means of information for those who are eager to obtain a truthful description of the new Alaskan Gold Fields. I have endeavored to describe things as they really are, not as they might be represented by those, whose business it is to boom up the country regardless of truth, and for their own and other benefit. If the information herein obtained will be of same value to those who contemplate going to the new fields, this publication will serve one of its objects; another is to make the reader think before he undertakes a trip of privation and hardships of the severest kind, and if I can prevent to some extent, a repetition of the Klondike excitement, caused by exagerated newspaper accounts and which proved so disasterous to thousands of people, I will feel that this book has not been in vain. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at www.forgottenbooks.com This book is a reproduction of an important historical work.

An Alaskan Gold Mine
Author: Leland Carlson
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1725232545
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 206
Book Description
An Alaskan Gold Mine: The Story of No. 9 Above is a notable and tragic story of the discovery of Alaska gold in 1898. The mine had so many implications for leaders and institutions of the Evangelical Covenant Church, a tangled and contested case of ownership extending over two decades that went to the Supreme Court of the United States on four occasions. Visiting Alaska three times doing meticulous research into legal proceedings and conducting oral interviews, Carlson succeeded in crafting a compelling narrative of gold, grief, and greed. An Alaskan Gold Mine: The Story of No. 9 Above remains a classic case study of the Alaska gold rush as a whole, as well as the particular context of issues and personalities unique to the bonanza claim staked by a Covenant missionary on Anvil Creek above the boomtown Nome.
