About This Book

A young boy, told that his seafaring father has been lost, goes to live with relatives and signs aboard a ship bound for Alaska to seek fortune. The narrative follows his sea voyage and inland adventures amid mysterious landscapes, rival prospectors, outlaws, and a stern Major; it moves through shipwrecks, cavern explorations, the recovery of hidden gold, a dramatic catastrophe that leaves the party fighting for survival, and subsequent chases and reckonings that settle claims and relationships. The tale centers on resourcefulness, endurance, and practical problem-solving in the face of danger and repeated reversals.
