Hardcover. Condition: Very good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very good. Geoffrey Thomson (Maps) (illustrator). First Printing [Stated]. xxi, [1], 182, [4] pages. Illustrations. Footnotes. Bibliographical Geographical Sources. Poems, Stories, Essays and Biographical Works by Harry Graham. Theatrical Works by Harry Graham. Jocelyn Henry Clive 'Harry' Graham (23 December 1874 - 30 October 1936) was an English writer. He was a successful journalist and later, after distinguished military service, a leading lyricist for operettas and musical comedies, but he is now best remembered as a writer of humorous verse in a style of grotesquerie and black humor. From March 1899 to 1901 and again in 1902-1904 he served as aide-de-camp to Lord Minto, Governor-General of Canada. As he returned to Canada. from serving in the Boer War, Graham kept a journal of his trip across Canada with Minto to the Klondike Gold Rush in the Yukon in 1900, called Across Canada to the Klondyke, which he later presented to Minto, and which was eventually published. To get a first-hand look at the situation in the Klondike, the new Governor General of Canada, Lord Minto, with his family and staff - the Comptroller of the Household, the Private Secretary and the Aide-de-Camp (Harry Graham) - headed west on a 10,000-mile journey across the Dominion and back. Packed with now-odd but still fascination facts about people and places along the way, Graham's account of the journey delightfully re-creates the official receptions and dignitaries, as well as the banter of the Governor General's staff as train and ship took them ever closer to the fabled land of gold. The diaries and journals of vice-regal reflect an observant writer of intelligence and wit who records events significant in the shaping of a nation in a way that combines information with readability. Harry Graham was such a writer. Across Canada and the Klondyke is such a work. Seller Inventory # 76102
