Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lecture on the Yukon Gold Fields (Canada): Delivered at Victoria, B. C Yukon District of the Northwest Territories, bordering on the Territory of Alaska. The district is more generally known by the name of the Klondyke Gold Fields, from the phenomenally rich mines discovered on the branches of the Klondyke. The manu script has been revised and amplified by Mr. Ogilvie since the delivery of the lecture, and its publication is authorized by him. Mr. Ogilvie's statements are of the greatest value, and can be taken as absolutely correct. Not only because of his well-known ability and integrity, but because they are the result of his actual observation, experience and work, he having spent many years in the Yukon region in the service of the Dominion Government. He is conceded to be the best living authority upon all matters concerning this far northern portion of America, and what he has to say as to the Yukon country generally, the several routes giving ingress to it, its natural resources and mineral formation - as well as the glimpses which he permits of the life of the miners at the fever period of the great rush - is here presented.

Book excerpt: The book, based on the accounts of dozens of prospectors, follows the first gold-seekers from their arrival in 1873 until the stampede to the Klondike in 1896. Gates captures the essence of these early years of the gold rush, about which very little has been written. He chronicles the trials, hearbreaks, and successes of the unique and hardy individualists who searched for gold in the wilderness. With names like Swiftwater Bill, Crooked Leg Louie, Slobbery Tom, and Tin Kettle George, these men lived in total isolation beyond the borders of civilization. They were often eccentrics and outcasts, who shaped their own rules, their own justice, and their own social order.

Book excerpt: Between 1896 and 1899, thousands of people lured by gold braved a grueling journey into the remote wilderness of North America. Within two years, Dawson City, in the Canadian Yukon, grew from a mining camp of four hundred to a raucous town of over thirty thousand people. The stampede to the Klondike was the last great gold rush in history. Scurvy, dysentery, frostbite, and starvation stalked all who dared to be in Dawson. And yet the possibilities attracted people from all walks of life—not only prospectors but also newspapermen, bankers, prostitutes, priests, and lawmen. Gold Diggers follows six stampeders—Bill Haskell, a farm boy who hungered for striking gold; Father Judge, a Jesuit priest who aimed to save souls and lives; Belinda Mulrooney, a twenty–four–year–old who became the richest businesswoman in town; Flora Shaw, a journalist who transformed the town's governance; Sam Steele, the officer who finally established order in the lawless town; and most famously Jack London, who left without gold, but with the stories that would make him a legend. Drawing on letters, memoirs, newspaper articles, and stories, Charlotte Gray delivers an enthralling tale of the gold madness that swept through a continent and changed a landscape and its people forever.
