Klondike
The Last Great Gold
Rush 1896-1899
by Pierre Berton
Pierre
Berton's riveting account reveals
to us the spectacle
of the Chilkoot Pass , and the terrors
of lesser-known trails through the
swamps of British Columbia, across
the glaciers of southern Alaska,
and up the icy streams of the Mackenzie
Mountains. It contrasts the lawless
frontier life on the American side
of
the
border to the relative safety of Dawson
City. Winner of the Governor General's
award for non-fiction, Klondike is
authentic history and grand entertainment,
and a must-read for anyone interested in
the Canadian frontier.
