BIOGRAPHIES OF ALASKA-YUKON PIONEERS 1850-1950, Volume 4
Rich in Northwest history, this volume should appeal to researchers in the West and Northwest whose ancestors may have been Alaska-Yukon immigrants. Seattle, Portland and San Francisco were points of departure and return, and many immigrants settled in those cities after trying their luck on the frontier. Volume 4 contains more than 400 biographies, alphabetically arranged and full of fascinating information. The majority of these early Alaskans came to the territory between 1880 and 1910. The main sources used for this compilation were newspaper obituaries and magazine articles. Each biography is followed by one or more citations naming the publication from which the information was obtained and listing the original date of publication. - United States - Alaska -

A new collection of hair-raising true tales about pioneers in Alaska, the Yukon and the northern Pacific region. It was a hardy breed of men and women who opened up the last frontier, and they tell some amazing survival stories. The author has selected 26 accounts of death and survival that chronicle the harsh realities of life on the northern frontier. These accounts were found in newspapers and magazines. Here are their stories, often in their own words. This is the North you will never read about in the travel brochures. - United States - Alaska -
