I have drawn from my experiences in Alaska, in Labrador, and in the high Sierras, and from my years of trapping and dog raising for the fabric of my story. It is a plain story, plainly told, with the one purpose in view: that of entertaining the reader for a brief space and giving him a glimpse of the grand mountain country.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
