In 1897, tens of thousands of would-be prospectors flooded into the Yukon in search of instant wealth during the Klondike Gold Rush. In this historical tale of mayhem and obsession, characters like prospectors George Carmack and Skookum Jim, Skagway gangster Soapy Smith and Mountie Sam Steele come to life. Enduring savage weather, unforgiving terrain, violence and starvation, a lucky few made their fortune, and some just as quickly lost it. The lure of the North is still irresistible in this exciting account of a fabled era of Canadian history.

From the Back Cover:

In the dirt lay the promise of success... or of failure. In the good ol' days of the gold fever, dreams were as contagious as influenza. The men and women of the Klondike Gold Rush endured back-breaking work, sizzling summers, and frozen winters, hoping for some luck. On yer mark, get set, stake yer claims!
