A Fine tight copy in a Fine bright unclipped dust jacket. In the years between 1896 and 1899, thousands of gold seekers journeyed into the remote wilderness of the Yukon Territory in search of quick riches but what many of them found was scurvy, frostbite, starvation and dysentary. But it was the lure of of Klondike fever that overtook these adventurers from all over the globe to subject themselves to the rowdy and often dangerous frontier towns and mining camps in search of gold. The author tells this Klondike story through the lives of six very different people: a miner, a saintly priest, a twenty-four year old business woman, a British journalist, a Northwest Mountie, and writer Jack London. Illustrated. Seller Inventory # 28776
