Download or read book A Land Gone Lonesome written by Dan O'Neill and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2008-07-31 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his square-sterned canoe, Alaskan author Dan O'Neill set off down the majestic Yukon River, beginning at Dawson, Yukon Territory, site of the Klondike gold rush. The journey he makes to Circle City, Alaska, is more than a voyage into northern wilderness, it is an expedition into the history of the river and a record of the inimitable inhabitants of the region, historic and contemporary. A literary kin of John Muir's Travels in Alaska and John McPhee's Coming into the Country, A Land Gone Lonesome is the book on Alaska for the new century. Though he treks through a beautiful and hostile wilderness, the heart of O'Neill's story is his exploration of the lives of a few tough souls clinging to the old ways-even as government policies are extinguishing their way of life. More than just colorful anachronisms, these wilderness dwellers-both men and women-are a living archive of North American pioneer values. As O'Neill encounters these natives, he finds himself drawn into the bare-knuckle melodrama of frontier life-and further back still into the very origins of the Yukon river world. With the rare perspective of an insider, O'Neill here gives us an intelligent, lyrical-and ultimately, probably the last-portrait of the river people along the upper Yukon.
Download or read book Life and Times of a Big River written by Peter J. Marchand and published by University of Alaska Press. This book was released on 2015-04-15 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Richard Nixon signed the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act in 1971, eighty million acres were flagged as possible national park land. Field expeditions were tasked with recording what was contained in these vast acres. Under this decree, five men were sent into the sprawling, roadless interior of Alaska, unsure of what they’d encounter and ultimately responsible for the fate of four thousand pristine acres. Life and Times of a Big River follows Peter J. Marchand and his team of biologists as they set out to explore the land that would ultimately become the Yukon-Charley Rivers National Preserve. Their encounters with strange plants, rare insects, and little-known mammals bring to life a land once thought to be static and monotonous. And their struggles to navigate and adapt to an unforgiving environment capture the rigorous demands of remote field work. Weaving in and out of Marchand's narrative is an account of the natural and cultural history of the area as it relates to the expedition and the region’s Native peoples. Life and Times of a Big River chorincles this riveting, one-of-a-kind journey of uncertainty and discovery from a disparate (and at one point desperate) group of biologists.

Download or read book Old Yukon written by James Wickersham and published by University of Alaska Press. This book was released on 2010-03-15 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this humorous and upbeat memoir, James Wickersham describes his career as a pioneer judge and later as a congressional representative assigned to a vast, snow-covered district, extending over 300,000 square miles in the undeveloped Alaska Territory. Wickersham’s many adventures include traveling by dogsled over hundreds of miles through snow-covered mountains; serving as judge for the trials of many famous outlaws in the midst of the gold strikes; and hunting, mining, and climbing in his local Alaska wilderness. Though he was instrumental in the early history of Alaska, and his legacy is evident throughout the state—for example, he named the city of Fairbanks—this is the first and only work to focus on Wickersham’s life during this pivotal time in Alaska’s history.

This book was released on 2022-03-26T22:59:00Z with total page 59 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The river was the clearest, purest water I had ever seen flowing over rocks. It had been forty-six degrees, and the Arctic sun did not seem to shine so much as to strike. The water was refrigerant, and I felt relief against the temples. #2 I camped next to the Salmon River in Alaska. The sun had been up for fourteen hours, and the river had hours to go before it set. It was a good campsite, and the river was a fishing site. #3 The salmon in the Salmon River have been fished out, but the grayling remain undisturbed. We fish for them, and in nine minutes, we have five. They are seventeen, eighteen inches long. We clean them in the Kitlik, with care that all the waste is taken by the stream. #4 The myth of Alaska is that there is a fish on every cast, a moose behind every tree. But the fish and the moose aren’t there. People go out with high expectations, and are disappointed.
