Description
James A. Carroll's personal journals bring to life the Alaska of 1911, a time when travel was by trail or river and communication stretched only as far as the echo of one's voice.
This is an authentic first-hand account of a young man's first decade in the territory of Alaska, telling the story of adversity and adventure on the far north frontier with honesty and humour.
Take a journey through time with James A. Carroll as he recounts his experiences as explorer, pioneer, dogsled musher, trapper, trader, husband, and father in this straightforward and engaging tale.
