First Setence:

""Young Andrew Hart turns out to be a bright and helpful companion for his father as the pair join thousands of men seeking gold in Canada. The short story has a happy ending thanks not to the discovery of gold but to Hart's resourcefulness. The story pays tribute to the Native Canadians who helped the gold seekers make their difficult trek. Five story chapters are followed by four chapters of straight history about this "last great gold rush," including the impact of the 1893 depression as well as the hazards of getting to the gold rush town of Dawson and actually finding gold. The text is large and almost every page has an ink drawing or photograph. A note about Jack London indicates that he too crossed the Chilkoot Pass and traveled to Dawson. He drew on those experiences for his novel "The Call of the Wild." A short glossary is included at the end. This is a high-interest tale about a dramatic saga in American history. It is a good way to gernerate interest in history among struggling or reluctant readers.""
"In 1897, Andrew and his father join thousands of other people headed for the Klondike goldfields. The book also provides information on the Klondike Gold Rush and the rise of the town of Dawson, Canada. This book is illustrated and contains archival photographs and drawings. It also includes bolded vocabulary words with a glossary. Children will be able to identify with the young, main character and learn about an important event in American history at the same time."
