Description
Two years before the famous Klondike gold rush of 1898, hundreds of pioneers and adventurers swarmed to the towns of Hope and Sunrise on Southcentral Alaska’s Kenai Peninsula in one of the little-known gold rushes of northland history.
A History of Mining on the Kenai Peninsula, Alaska traces the story of these hardy pioneers and others, before and after them, who participated in their eager search for coal, chromite, lime, oil and of course, gold.
