This book is a fascinating first-hand account of a two-year trip to the Yukon River valley's gold fields being discovered and initially developed at the end of the 19th century. Young but experienced William Haskell and his best friend and partner set off for Alaska in 1896, just prior to the huge Klondike gold strike which started the fabled stampede north in 1898. He is an eye witness to the stampede! The primitive conditions, personal deprivations, and extremes of environment they experienced are nothing short of incredible. Haskell is a surprisingly good writer. The book was obviously written as a combination memoir and travel guide for contemporaries contemplating the trip north. I highly recommend it to anyone with an interest in Alaska, the Canadian Northwest, and/or the Alaska Gold Rush. It will leave you with a sense of awe regarding the ability of people to struggle and survive against incredibly brutal conditions.One note - I read the Kindle version of the book. It is obviously a scan of the original book with very little if any editing. As a result, there are numerous typos. The Kindle version also lacks the illustrations, etc. Missed the additional material, but I was able to wade through it. Some might find it annoying, but the book is out of print.
This is an interesting tale told by an actual participant in the Alaskan gold rush. I was delighted to find he was a decent writer and some of his lines were actually poetic. His tale leads us from moments of gut-wrenching hardiship and terror brought about by the effort to move men, animals, supplies over treacherous mountains and through the permafrosted valleys, all in the pursuit of gold.This book is full of description of the Alaskan wilderness in it's most beautiful and its most miserable. The book does not actually have a plot, since it is a first person account of Haskell's wild and wooly experience. But it does follow a logical sequence. Many times Haskell finds himself knee-deep in freezing water wondering if the tiny flakes he seeks are worth the price he's paid in physical effort. But in the end he's an optimist, and rewards the reader with many good tales of his adventure.I recommend this book.
I found it easy to read, engaging and informative. My wife and I had just done a land/sea cruise to Alaska the first week of September and it helped me a lot to picture some of the things the author describes. His descriptions of sights and situations does a good job of creating what the eye sees with words. It gets a little long but every time I put it down I found myself wanting to pick it up again and read on - which I did, and am glad I did.
Much valuable information here and character description is ok. However the author does grind on incessantly about panning results of various locations and areas suspected of having gold. I found myself skipping many pages of his repeating the same thing too many times.
There are plenty of books on the subject, but this one is a gem. The author’s command of the English language and ability to tell a story are equaled only by his incredible insight and wisdom.
Quit detailed informational. Not a novel reading. Many experiences & helpful advices if thinking of going to prospect. Wouldn't read urbanism
I've read dozens of gold rush style books and this was one of the best. Well written and a gripping story. Even though it was written a long time ago obviously for gold seekers it's still an easy read today. The hardships the gold rushers endured are amazing.
Totally fascinated by the Klondike and it's history! After watching The Discovery Channel mini series based (loosely, very loosely) on William Haskell's two years in the Klondike, I searched out to read his actual book he wrote of his experiences.This was a very difficult read due to the early 20th century writing style and the very poor formatting of the Kindle download. The writing I was able to get through after learning Haskell's writing style, but the formatting of the text was very distracting and I feel could of been handled much better. I also believe that there were originally pictures, maps, and diagrams that were never formatted into the Kindle e-version which took away from the reading experience. This is the first Kindle e-book that has been a disappointment in the over 90 titles that I have bought. At this point I would really love to see an original copy of this book just to see the way it was originally written.
