how he saw it, the men and things he met, what the hardships were and how

““Mr. Heilprin observed Dawson with the eyes of a student of great scien- 
tific attainments, who had little in common with the crowd of elemental and 
uncouth men gathered there, or with their life; and he noted many things 
which they themselves probably accepted as matters of course, besides writing 
an important scientific treatise.”’—Boston Herald, 
“Tt is noticeably fair-minded in its presentation of facts—the work of a 
clear-minded and well-trained observer.’-—New York Outlook. 
“The first adequate presentation of the Klondike gold problem made by a 
geologist.’’— New York Mail and Express.
