Excerpt from A Cheechako in Alaska and YukonThe war, thank God, had ended. There was no further sacrifice of splendid lives. And as I progressed through that beautiful State of California, Queen of the Pacific, with its glorious sunshine, carpets of wild-flowers, snow-clad moun tains, and golden harvests of yellow oranges, yellow gold, and, in the north, yellow grain, I began to have thoughts of Alaska.On the Pacific Coast one seems, quite near, as Seattle is the principal port for embarkation to Alaska. One meets people who have lived there, who speak of the Great Country, as the Indians used to. Call it. My mind was made up. Here, then, was an opportunity to realize that dream of my childhood and see Nome. But I am patriotic, and ardently desired to see the Yukon as well, so determined to wait until the snow and ice had melted in June. And thus it happened that in Golden California I abided until the season favoured my long-anticipated journey.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
