Book excerpt: The popular image of the Klondike is of a rush of white, male adventurers who overcame great physical and geographical obstacles in their quest for gold. Young, white, single American men carried forward the ideals and structures of the western frontier. It was a man's world made respectable only after the turn of the century with the arrival of white, middle class women who miraculously swept out the corners of dirt and vice and 'civilized' the society. These impressions endure despite recent attempts to correct them. Gamblers and Dreamers tackles some of the myths about the history of the North in the era of the gold rush. Though many inhabitants came and went, Charlene Porsild focuses on the concept of community commitment to show that many put down roots. This in-depth study of Dawson City at the turn of the century reveals that the city had a cosmopolitan character, a stratified society, and a definite permanence. It examines the lives of First Nations peoples, miners and other labourers, professionals, merchants, dance hall performers and sex trade workers, providing fascinating detail about those who left homes and jobs to strike it rich in the last great gold rush of the nineteenth century. In the process, Gamblers and Dreamers puts a human face on this compelling period of history.

Book excerpt: Chilkoot Pass is indeed the most famous trail in the North, and Satterfield has written a book that is ideal for hikers and armchair travelers. It is history, adventure, and an excellent companion to the Klondike Gold Rush National Park¬ all in one. At no other time or place in recorded history did so many people voluntarily subject themselves to so much agony, misery, death and glory than in 1897-98 when countless thousands of stampeders crossed the Chilkoot pass on their way to the Klondike gold fields.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report emphasizes five broad areas of interest: 1- Native uses of the Chilkoot Train and surrounding areas during the pre-contact period; 2- Native uses of the trail and surrounding areas just before and during the gold rush; 3- Native uses of the trail and surrounding areas after the gold rush; 4- Native peoples' contemporary uses of the trail and surrounding areas; and 5- Traditional ecological knowledge, particularly concerning environmental and ecological changes (plants, animals, weather, landscape) that have occurred in the region since before the gold rush. This report also includes an annotated bibliography that critically evaluates significant sources of information about the culture and history of the Native people surrounding KLGO, and an assessment and prioritization of ethnographic work that needs to be completed in the future to meet legal mandates, policy directives, or management needs.

Download or read book Hard Drive to the Klondike written by Lisa Mighetto and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Alaskan Klondike Gold Rush coincided with major events, including the arrival of the railroad, and it exemplified continuing trends in Seattle's history. If not the primary cause of the city's growth and prosperity, the Klondike Gold Rush nonetheless serves as a colorful reflection of the era and its themes, including the celebrated "Seattle spirit." This historic resource study examines the Klondike Gold Rush, beginning in the early 1850's with the founding of Seattle, and ending in 1909 with the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition commemorating the Klondike Gold Rush and the growth of the city. Chapter 1 describes early Seattle and the gold strikes in the Klondike, while the following three chapters analyze how the city became the gateway to the Yukon, how the stampede to the Far North stimulated local businesses, and how the city's infrastructure and boundaries changed during the era of the gold rush. Chapter 5 looks at how historians have interpreted the Klondike Gold Rush throughout the 20th century. The final chapter brings the Klondike story up to the present, describing the establishment of Seattle's Pioneer Square Historic District and the Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park. The chapter titles include: (1) "'By-and-By': The Early History of Seattle"; (2) "Selling Seattle"; (3) "Reaping the Profits of the Klondike Trade"; (4) "Building the City"; (5) "Interpreting the Klondike Gold Rush"; and (6) "Historic Resources in the Modern Era." Contains an extensive 147-item partially annotated bibliography; 12 appendixes contain historical documents and photographs.
