1998220 pages including many excellent black and white photographs. Author was born in 1865 in Truro, Cornwall, where he apprenticed in woodworking and architecture. A restless young man, he emigrated to British Columbia where he worked on the province's new parliament buildings. His life's path saw him as boat builder, homesteader, garage owner, justice of the peace - a man of diverse talents and skills. It was his boat building expertise which got Olive to the Klondyke, constructing boats for the Bennett Lake & Klondyke Navigation Company. while completing three boats, his adventures and those related to him by the gold field bound stampeders travelling on Yukon River steamboats became the material for this fascinating memoir and historical record which he assembled in his later life. Soiling to title page and back flyleaf where bright gold colouring of French flaps on covers has rubbed off to a moderate extent. Book

1854réf. 9279Columbus: Ohio State Journal Company 1854. Second Edition. Hardcover. Very good-. Octavo 135pp. illustrated. This is the second edition published two years after the first and certainly the better one being the first to contain the numerous tinted lithographed plates. About very good in the publisher's blind-tooled red cloth with gilt detail on the spine. Some inartful but not disfiguring coloring-in to some chipped areas on the spine extremities. This copy lacking the folding frontispiece and one plate "View of Morrow from the South" but otherwise complete and with five plates not noted in the list of illustrations all in the Cleveland area "Cleveland Station" "West Branch Rocky River Near Olmsted Station" "East Branch Rocky River Berea Station" "Elk Creek" and "Grand River Near Painesville Station". The list of illustrations calls for 28 plates including the map. While we have 26 of the 28 the 5 extra yield a total of 31 plates. Thus while incomplete still a desirable and very "Cleveland" copy of this important image-driven guide for rail travelers in Ohio. The author goes on tangents for example spending more than two pages discussing the general history of the Mormons as the guide passes through Kirtland but these digressions seem to be in some sense the point--offering diversion to the weary traveler. Howes O52; Thomson 887. With strong recent auction records we have priced the book accordingly at about 1/3 its natural price were the frontispiece present. Ohio State Journal Company hardcover
