Yukon Relief Expedition: and the Journal of Carl Johan Sakarisassen.

by Virginia Rausch

Overview

Edited by Sakariaasen's daughters, this volume reproduces the diary he kept in 1898-1899, when he took a reindeer herd from Norway to Alaska. Those reindeer that survived the trek formed the basis for reindeer herds in the area today, we learn, along with other aspects of the history and natural history of the area in the editors' introduction and epilogue and in the journal itself.
