(Taken from the Preface:) This volume covers an expedition
made into the interior of Alaska and the Yukon Territory by a party of
three men, of which the author was one. The objects of our trip have been
stated in the first chapter and will not be repeated in this introductory
statement.
The events of this expedition stand out in the memory of the writer so
prominently and the scenery so magnificently, that his narrative has been
written independently of the writer's notes, accurately made each day,
which have been consulted for the purpose of verification only.
 The one
predominating desire has been that all our experiences be related as they
actually occurred, and all observations be recorded as they were made.
As a further precaution against any inaccuracies which might inadvertently
appear, and fearing there might be some conflict in our memories or
impressions, the manuscript was submitted to the other surviving member of
our party with the request that he make suggestions and corrections. With
the exception of one minor detail, which necessitated a letter to our
outfitter before the writer was convinced and was willing to make the
suggested change, the manuscript received his unqualified endorsement.
The photographs, with a few noted exceptions, were selected from a
considerable number taken by the author. The kindness of the publishers of
Robert W. Service's poems is also acknowledged, for their permission to
use a number of Service's verses, taken from The Spell of the Yukon and
Ballads of a Cheechako. G.O. Young
