Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. A Fine tight copy in a Fine dust jacket . W.H.T. Olive's memoir is his record of the year he spent as manager of the boats for the Bennett Lake & Klondyke Navigation Company in the Yukon Gold Rush of 1898. In the untamed North, where travellers had only one thing on their minds, Gold! Olive's day-to-day life was nothing but extraordinary. He acted as onboard diplomat for both seasoned prospectors and greenhorns, shot the White Horse Rapids, and in addition to passengers and their provisions, was responsible for two all-important kinds of shipment: mail and liquor. His adventures included rescuing damsels in distress, guiding his employer, the architect Frank Rattenbury, through a disastrous, mosquito-infested expedition, and defending his strongbox at gunpoint from thieves. Sam Steele, of the North West Mounted Police, William Ogilvie, first commissioner of the Yukon, Machine-gun Joe Boyle, and the notorious gangster Soapy Smith all make an appearance here. Olive's account of his adventures is complemented by his fond remembrance of the sourdoughs on the trail he met during this short but intense period in history. First Printing of the First Canadian Edition.

An interesting letter from American Illustrator of the Brandywine School, Olive Rush to Katharine Pyle, sister of Rush's mentor, Howard Pyle. Rush writes from her adobe farmhouse in Santa Fe that she has not been exhibiting much on the East Coast, similarly to other members of the Santa Fe Colony, due to "very little likelihood of sales." However, she will make an exception for Pyle's exhibition in Wilmington, due to a feeling of loyalty to the town where she studied under (Howard) Pyle. Rush was also an important educator, teaching art in the Indian school in Santa Fe and encouraging her students to show Native American pride through their work. TLS, 27x19cm, 13 lines signed by Rush and with a couple corrections in her hand. Transmittal folds, uniform toning else near fine.
