George Carmack
The Man of Mystery
Who Set Off the klondike Goldrush

by James Albert Johnson

Carmack turned to the crowd. Raising his hand and his voice, he called for quiet. His widely spaced blue eyes revealed his excitement but his voice was calm. "Boys, I've got

some good news. There's been a big strike up river."
George Carmack's announcement in August 1896 started a gold stampede, one that led more than half a million people to the Klondike. Here is the inside story of Carmack's lifelong dream to find gold – a fever that remained with him well after he left his Discovery claim to continue the search in Washington and California.
