FRONTIER SPIRIT, The Brave Women of The Klondike, by Jennifer Duncan, celebrates the lives of women who, in defiance of traditional expectations, left their homes, their families, and their professions, to make the arduous journey through a punishing climate and unfamiliar wilderness to seek their fortunes in the Klondike.
With remarkable empathy, imagination and personal insight, Duncan creates an engrossing portrait of the splendour of the Yukon, breathing life into the stories of the daring and diverse women of the Klondike and the grandeur of the adventurers who gambled everything to find their fortunes there. Lavishly illustrated with photographs, portraits, maps, notes, sources, photograph credits, acknowledgements, and an index.
