Coming from all over the country, the fortune seekers gather in San Francisco and board a ship for Alaska, unaware of the many hardships that they will face out in the unforgiving wilderness, such as blizzards, floods and fires.

Famous Canadian poet Robert W. Service also wrote novels -- and good ones, too. Here's an exciting adventure that rivals the best of Jack London. THEY LIVED AND LOVED FOR GOLD! This is the law of the Yukon, and ever she makes it plain: "Send not your foolish and feeble; send me your strong and your sane. Them will I gild with my treasure, them will I glut with my meat; But the others -- the misfits, the failures -- I trample under my feet." Garry the prospector traveled the Chilkroot Trail in the Goldrush of 1898 through snow and danger. But would his lust for gold cost him his beloved Berna?

Service, Robert W.: - "Robert William Service (1874 - 1958) was a British-Canadian poet and writer who has often been called the Bard of the Yukon. He is best known for his poems The Shooting of Dan McGrew and The Cremation of Sam McGee, from his first book, Songs of a Sourdough (1907; also published as The Spell of the Yukon and Other Verses). His vivid descriptions of the Yukon and its people made it seem that he was a veteran of the Klondike Gold Rush, instead of the late-arriving bank clerk he actually was. Although his work remains popular, Service's poems were initially received as being crudely comical works."
