Searching for Gold in the Klondike: A History-Seeking Adventure - Hardcover

by Eric Braun (Author)

YOU have been struggling for months. America is in a deep recession. Unemployment is high. There is a shortage of gold. Even banks are running out of money. And then one day, a story in the newspaper catches your eye. Prospectors have discovered gold along the Klondike River in Yukon--the northern-most part of Canada. And they say there is more where that came from. That settles it, you decide. The Yukon is where you'll make your fortune. Will you venture north by boat, facing the perils of the water along the way? Or will you take your chances on land? Step back in time to face the dangers and decisions real people had to make as they tried to strike it rich in the Klondike.
