SYNOPSIS: Yukon Memories chronicles real adventures in a time and place that forms the backdrop to some of Canada's most enduring legends--the days when mail was hauled overland by sleigh, prospectors still sifted through the gravel of Bonanza Creek searching for gold, and trappers sometimes went missing for years. And as young Tich Watson quickly discovered, law enforcement in the Yukon of the 1930s was often dramatic. Minutes after arriving at his Dawson City posting in 1932, the rookie R.C.M.P. constable was supervising the death watch of a popular local resident condemned to hang for murder. Based on journals Watson kept during his four-year R.C.M.P. posting in the North, this book is a tribute to the great Yukon spirit of adventure and community that still lingers on in our national psyche. An important addition to Canada's historical literature, Yukon Memories, often more humorous than harrowing, is a spellbinding look at an extraordinary way of life. Constable J. B. (Tich) Watson came out of the Yukon to serve in British Columbia. He attended Police College at Regina in 1941, was promoted sergeant in 1947 and was a senior NCO at the time of amalgamation with the British Columbia Provincial Police. After his service in the Yukon he returned to England on leave every two years to see his mother, sister and brother until his mother passed away. He retired to pension in 1952 after 20 years of service. The Watsons started a small nursery on Vancouver Island along the side of the old railway bed which today is the Patricia Bay Highway. When he retired from that in 1962, Jack Watson took up painting as a hobby and began teaching members of the Multiple Sclerosis Society. This grew to a class of 12, and helping them control brush and paint on canvas proved to be a rewarding and fascinating experience. He also found Vic Foley in a hostel south of Vancouver and took him to a reunion of sourdoughs where the old-timer from Sixtymile received a warm welcome. More than half a century after making the patrol at 74 below zero for "No Court Case If Possible" he finds himself living a mile away from his former partner, Reg Sheppard. Bunny Lilievre, who became a successful business man in the Yukon, married the former Alice Burkhard of Dawson and they are living near Nanaimo, 80 miles north of the Watsons. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Carolyn Deby (illustrator).
