Description:

Two years before the famous Klondike gold rush of 1898, hundreds of pioneers and adventurers swarmed to the towns of Hope and Sunrise on Southcentral Alaska s Kenai Peninsula in one of the little-known gold rushes of north land history. A History of Mining on the Kenai Peninsula, Alaska traces the story of the hardy pioneers who participated in the eager search for coal, chromite, lime, oil, and of course, gold. It is a story of fervent dreams and dashed hoped; of people and their ingenuity in coping with problems encountered in few other places on earth; of quiet, hopeful little claims and bustling boom towns that sprang up overnight. The narrative is filled with colorful characters, such as One-Eyed Reilly, Dynamite Johnny O Brien, Cap Lathrop, Mother White and the infamous Soapy Smith. The Kenai Mountains-Turnagain Arm National Heritage Area in partnership with the Hope and Sunrise Historical Society and the Kenai Peninsula Historical Association is pleased to bring new life to a classic volume of Alaska history and lore. This edition of A History of Mining on the Kenai Peninsula is a reprint of the original last printed in 1997. Marry Barry s prolific writing about the Kenai Peninsula has added richly to the discussion, study and enjoyment of history in this region of Alaska.
