Law of the Yukon: A pictorial history of the Mounted Police in the Yukon

A northern author looks at the challenges faced by the Mounties in Canada's Yukon Territory over the last 100 years, from their arrival on the eve of the world-famous Klondike gold rush, to the present. Through vivid photos, careful research, and use of personal diaries and correspondence, Helene Dobrowolsky illustrates the reality of Royal Canadian Mounted Police history to be even more intriguing than the fiction of Hollywood's Sergeant Preston.
