Unbelieveable photos! A must buy for history lovers.,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Klondike Quest: A Photographic Essay 1897-1899 (Hardcover)
Berton, a well known writer of Canadian histories, has put together quite a collection of photographs in this glossy tome. If you are realy interested in the subject, I suggest Klondike Quest for the remarkable pictures, and "The Klondike Fever", also by Berton, for a written account. I can't praise the collection of photographs enough.

Great Book,

This review is from: The Klondike Quest: A Photographic Essay 1897-1899 (Paperback)
A simplified but engaging narrative to enrich what is mainly a photo book. The photos are top notch, real gems that are usually hidden away in museums. Get this book.

Riveting,
By Paul A. Eident "Poppy Eident" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Klondike Quest: A Photographic Essay 1897-1899 (Paperback)
The photos are riveting - each photo is a story. I studied the details of each picture - the clothing, the tools, the lines in their faces - trying to imagine the life these people led. The narrative is excellent, just enough to set the scene for each photo without being wordy. The author is good at conveying the emotions felt by the fortune-seekers at the various stages of their journey. Those who are interested in people and in history will enjoy this book.

Klondike,
By Sherry Moon - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Klondike Quest: A Photographic Essay 1897-1899 (Paperback)
History has never been so entertaining and enthralling. This is was such a unique time and yet I could see so much of today's headlines in my mind as I read.
