Synopsis
Excerpt from A Woman's Trip to Alaska: Being an Account of a Voyage Through the Inland Seas of the Sitkan Archipelago in 1890
I profess to be somewhat familiar with every route of travel between New York, Puget Sound and British Columbia, and can verify your faithful description as far as Queen Charlotte Sound. Thence to Sitka, Muir Glacier and Juneau, your trip went beyond my per sonal experience; although I have conversed with many officers who have been there and beyond, all of whom will bear testimony to your faithful descriptions.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. Travel aficionado Septima Collis whimsically shares her journal of a voyage from Minneapolis to Alaska on the Queen, a ship as luxurious as any yacht. Her lively account is a breezy blend of travelogue and historical musing. From the comfort of a dining car, the author takes in the breathtaking views of the Northern Pacific Railroad including the Badlands of North Dakota, the Yellowstone River, and the Cascade Mountains with their formidable Stampede Pass. Collis also includes her impressions of the newfound settlements along the rail line and the warm hospitality of the people. At each stop she delves into local history, from the gold rush at Juneau to the Russian legacy at Sitka. Collis's delightful book is a beguiling combination of travel writing, social commentary, and fascinating historical tidbits. It will inspire armchair adventurers and seasoned travelers alike to explore the untamed beauty of the American frontier. Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
