Résumé
In the summer of 1897, two ships carrying more than a tonne of gold apiece sailed from the Yukon to civilization. The world went mad. By the winter of 1897-1898, more than one hundred thousand men and women had ventured… to the Yukon to strike it rich. Pierre Berton tells how these gold-seekers made it through the frozen White and Chilkoot Passes, how they built an armada of boats to take them to the gold-fields, and what happened to them along the way. Grades 5-8. 1991.
