Covering vast distances in time and space, Yukon: The LastFrontier begins with the early Russian fur trade on the AleutianIslands and closes with what Melody Webb calls 'the technologicalfrontier'. Colourful and impeccably researched, her history of theYukon Basin of Canada and Alaska shows how much and how little haschanged there in the last two centuries. Successive waves of traders, trappers, miners, explorers, soldiers, missionaries, settlers, steamboat pilots, road builders, and aviators have come to the Yukon, bringing economic and social changes, but the immense land 'remainsvirtually untouched by permanent intrusions.' | Yukon by Melody Webb, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
