A series of accessible, fast-paced non-fiction narratives aimed at pre-teen and young teenage readersWhen word of the great Klondike gold discovery reached the world in the summer of 1897, hundreds of thousands of people began the trek to Canada's Yukon. Crammed with fascinating characters, here are stories of greed, courage and foolhardiness.
Excellent first book for anyone interested in the Klondike gold rush. Provides accurate overview of the events that made this such an important event in history. For the reader already generally familiar with the Klondike gold rush, a good second book is the one written Tappan Adney; that book provides excellent details about everything imagineable.
