Summary "Golden Alaska: A Complete Account to Date of the Yukon Valley" by Ernest Ingersoll is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This work aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the Yukon Valley, focusing on its history, geography, mineral resources, and the means of access to this remote area that garnered significant attention during the gold rush. With the recent discovery of gold in the Klondike region, the book intends to satisfy public curiosity with factual information about this newfound frontier. The opening of the book sets the stage for an exploration of the Yukon, detailing the various logistical routes to the gold fields, particularly emphasizing the significance of the Yukon River and its tributaries. Ingersoll introduces key companies and reliable transportation resources for prospective miners, while also discussing both land and sea approaches to reach this challenging yet promising territory. He provides a blueprint for travelers, covering the necessary preparations and dangers they might encounter, thereby highlighting the urgency and excitement of the gold rush as adventurers flock to this "greatest gold district on earth."
