Download or read book Trip to Alaska written by George Wardman and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-21 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Trip to Alaska: A Narrative of What Was Seen and Heard During a Summer Cruise in Alaskan Waters In the summer of 1879 the writer Obtained permission from Hon. John Sherman, at that time Secretary Of the Treasury, to proceed in the United States revenue steamer Richard Rush, Captain Bailey, on her cruise from San Francisco to Sitka, the Fur Seal Islands, the Sea Otter Grounds, and other points in Alas kan waters. The voyage proved exceedingly interesting, and the author gave an account of What he saw and heard to certain newspapers, in a desultory way, but he has been led to believe that his Observations may be read in a more permanent form with interest, and he hopes with profit, by those who may be in search of information concerning Alaska. Going from California, or the east, to Sitka, the most practical route of travel is by steamer from San Francisco. The course is coastwise to Cape Flattery, and then up the Straits of Fuca and by inland passages to the Objective point. The interest of the voyage to the tourist begins at the mouth of the Straits, where the vessel leaves the open sea and enters a broad channel with Washington Territory upon one hand and Vancouver Island on the other. From this point to Sitka the scene is one of varied interest to the traveller, and quite free from the usual discomforts Of ocean travel.

Download or read book A Woman s Trip to Alaska written by Septima M. Collis and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-16 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Woman's Trip to Alaska: Being an Account of a Voyage Through the Inland Seas of the Sitkan Archipelago in 1890 In the following pages I have not made even a pretence of writing a scientific or historical work. It is not of special interest to those for whom I write to know the exact pressure to the square inch which propels the seas of ice as they furrow their way from the Arctic regions through the mountain gorges down to the softening influences of the Japanese stream, nor to trace the vicissitudes of Alaska from the voyages of Captain Cook down to the purchase by Mr. Seward in 1867, nor yet to familiarize themselves with the ethnology of the various tribes of Indians who inhabit the Aleutian Islands. All this has been better done than I could ever hope to do it. My sole object is to put on paper, for the benefit of others, the impressions made upon me by the voyage, and to explain how this delightful excursion can be enjoyed without the slightest fatigue or discomfort, and at a trifling expense. I want them to know, as I know, that the ship is a yacht, of which the Captain is the host, the passengers his guests, and the object of the cruise the pursuit of pleasure; and if I succeed in inducing my countrywomen to follow my example and postpone Paris and London, Rome and Vienna, the Rhine and the Alps, to some future day, they will always have reason to be grateful to me, and I shall always have reason to be satisfied with my effort.
