This book was released on 2017-12-24 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Alaska Its History, Climate Natural Resources The brief history of the discovery and occupa tion of Alaska byxthe Russians, which I have inr corporate'd in this work, has been compiled largely from the records of the russian-ameri can Company, as translated for me by Mr.' George Kostrometinoff. That part relating to the purchase of the country by the United States are matters of Congressional record, which the reader can easily verify by referring to the de bates had in the Senate and House of Represent atives, 1867 8. The remainder, and by far the larger part of the volume, is based upon personal observation and research, made during an official residence of severalyears in the Territory, during which time I personally visited all the different sections referred to for the special purpose of in vestigation and report. Concerning my estimate of the natural resources of these different sec tions, I am wholly content to await the confirma tion that certainly lies withinthe near future. F.

Download or read book Alaska an Empire in the Making Classic Reprint written by John Jasper Underwood and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-01 with total page 568 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Alaska, an Empire in the Making The information contained in this book was gathered during an almost continuous residence of fourteen years in Alaska and the Yukon Territory. Much of this time, it is true, was spent in fishing, hunting, exploring, mining, and various ways other than the acquisition of data. But what has been written is as accurate as it is humanly possible to make it. The writer's notes and observations have been checked up with government reports and other official documents, and the works of Alfred H. Brooks, Chief of the Geological Survey in Alaska, Skidmore's "History of Sitka," Dall's "Resources of Alaska," Senator Sumner's speech on the resources of Alaska, and various documents in the state, treasury and other departments of the government have been freely consulted. It is hoped that it will serve not only as a guide for tourists and sightseers who visit the Northern wonderland, but also that it may contain matters of interest to the stock raiser, the farmer, the miner, the prospector, the investor, and those who may go to Alaska for purposes other than sight-seeing. A few of the photographs herein reproduced were taken by the writer, but the majority of them represent the work of several professional photographers situated in different parts of the Northland.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Alaska: Its Waters, Land and Life For as far as do the colors and fretwork of a California sunset lie beyond the powers of detailed reproduction by the artist, so do the scenic marvels of these isles and channels surpass the limit of descriptive narrative. From the time that you enter Clarence Strait until you move through Cross Sound again into the North Pacific, you are encompassed by aswiftly changing panorama of surprises. Your first sensations will be that you have strangely stepped off the ocean and are making a journey through inland waters that are not related to the sea. For the fresh scent in the cold, damp air is not the odor of brine, and this commingling with the agreeable exhalations of the forests which clothe the mountains upon your either hand, makes you feel that you are winding amongst a a mesh of rivers in some semi-frigid interior.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Alaska: The Great Country Soul-sick am I, O God, of little things Small pleasures, aspirations, creeds, desires; Low valleys, slender brooks and hearthside fires. I want the sweep of wide, triumphant wings; The halleluiah that the ocean sings; The wind that roars like beasts and never tires! Great God, my soul aches to the mighty lgres Of Nature To men heritaged as kings Who dare, aspire, achieve, not counting cost, So that a deed be done that reaches far A new land won; a perilous water crossed; So that a man coming to his last rest Shall wear upon his brow the splendid star That leads the glorious empire - builders West!

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Rainbow's End: Alaska And it was the second day: They Sped across the prairies, the level threshing floors Of the world's gran ary, swept clean of wheat now, with pools of water showing that Dame Nature had barely finished her Spring house-cleaning. Flowers peered out every where as they passed; the year was too young for hard work. The third day they passed through Bismarck, North Dakota, a town which has always had enough cranks to turn every freak machine extant. They crossed the muddy Missouri at the little town Of Mandan, named from the curious blue-eyed Indians who once lived about it, a powerful tribe. At Medora they caught Sight of the Marquis de Mores' castle, high perched upon a crag, and of the great packing houses builded with his American wife's rocks. The little town was named after her. At the mansion extravagant hospitality was once dispensed. House parties feasted, danced, hunted, marveling at the surrounding wilder ness and the luxury that had invaded it. But the mar quis has ended his adventurous life in far away Africa, the great buildings are abandoned, like the foolish scheme that demanded them, and serve only to bring to mind a man whose fine riding and personal bravery were his most conspicuous virtues.
