Download or read book A Schoolteacher in Old Alaska written by Hannah Breece and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2008-12-30 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Hannah Breece came to Alaska in 1904, it was a remote lawless wilderness of prospectors, murderous bootleggers, tribal chiefs, and Russian priests. She spent fourteen years educating Athabascans, Aleuts, Inuits, and Russians with the stubborn generosity of a born teacher and the clarity of an original and independent mind. Jane Jacobs, Hannah's great-niece, here offers an historical context to Breece's remarkable eyewitness account, filling in the narrative gaps, but always allowing the original words to ring clearly. It is more than an adventure story: it is a powerful work of women's history that provides important--and, at times, unsettling--insights into the unexamined assumptions and attitudes that governed white settler's behavior toward native communities at the turn of the century. "An unforgettable...story of a remarkable woman who lived a heroic life."--The New York Times
Download or read book Ten a Texts and Tales Vol 6 written by John W. Chapman and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-21 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ten'a Texts and Tales, Vol. 6: From Anvik, Alaska The people have no history, in the proper sense of the term. The identity of the father is sunk in that of the child, and no account is to be heard among them of deeds of valor performed by their ancestors. NO names of famous men appear to have been handed down among them. The small-pox epidemic of 1839, and the appear ance of the first steamboat on the Yukon, in 1869, furnish dates by which the ages of the older generation may be ascertained. From this it appears that the oldest indi vidual at Anvik, and probably in any of the villages within a radius Of' fifty miles from Anvik, is seventy-one years Old. This is a woman. Fortunately, her memory is clear, and her mentality above the average. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Cheechako in Alaska and Yukon The war, thank God, had ended. There was no further sacrifice of splendid lives. And as I progressed through that beautiful State of California, Queen of the Pacific, with its glorious sunshine, carpets of wild-flowers, snow-clad moun tains, and golden harvests of yellow oranges, yellow gold, and, in the north, yellow grain, I began to have thoughts of Alaska. On the Pacific Coast one seems, quite near, as Seattle is the principal port for embarkation to Alaska. One meets people who have lived there, who speak of the Great Country, as the Indians used to. Call it. My mind was made up. Here, then, was an opportunity to realize that dream of my childhood and see Nome. But I am patriotic, and ardently desired to see the Yukon as well, so determined to wait until the snow and ice had melted in June. And thus it happened that in Golden California I abided until the season favoured my long-anticipated journey.
