    The ultimate pre-gold rush survival diary. Step into the past with the authentic, unvarnished 1892–1893 logs of a real Yukon prospector who braved -80°F winters, wild rapids, and silver bears years before the world rushed to the Klondike.

    Lovingly recovered by his great-great-granddaughters, featuring original illustrations by his 3rd great-grandson Patrick C. Scullin, and masterfully compiled, edited, and annotated by 3rd great-grandson Aaron M. Scullin, this multi-generational preservation project is a must-read primary source.
