The Yukon Trail
William MacLeod Raine
Book Overview:
The Yukon Trail: A Tale of the North (filmed as The Grip of the Yukon in 1928) is an adventure yarn from the prodigious output of William MacLeod Raine, who averaged nearly two western novels a year for some 46 years. Twenty of his novels have been filmed. Though Raine was prolific, he was a slow, careful, conscientious worker, intent on accurate detail, and considered himself a craftsman rather than an artist.

"Do you know, I have a queer feeling that I've seen all this before," the Irish girl said. "Of course I haven't—unless it was in my dreams. Naturally I've thought about Alaska a great deal because my father lived here."
"I didn't know that."
"Yes. He came in with the Klondike stampeders." She added quietly: "He died on Bonanza Creek two years later."
"Was he a miner?"

"Not until he came North. He had an interest in a claim. It later turned out worthless."
A bit of stiff climbing brought them to a boulder field back of which rose a mountain ridge.
"We've got off the trail somehow," Elliot said. "But I don't suppose it matters. If we keep going we're bound to come to the waterfall."
Beyond the boulder field the ridge rose sharply. Gordon looked a little dubiously at Sheba.

I have read better stories by Raine but this is still a very good tale. Set in the great northwest, Alaska territory in the early 1900's, as it was written in this same time period the story comes across as very realistic.
Written early in the 1900’s, this tale of adventure, love, and scheming in Alaska is an enjoyable read.
Written in 1917, reads like a super-hero love story. Fun to read descriptions of a bye-gone era of stereotypes. Manly men. Honest hard-working hero falls madly in love. Conniving greedy monopolistic businessman with daft, spineless lackey. Down on his luck grizzled prospector. Fetching Irish lass wi

Ok
There's no such thing as a automatic revolver. It was easy to tell how it would turn out. More of a love story.
Good story.
Great trio of stories.
I hope there is another book to follow up on these. I was not happy with the abrupt ending. Need to know more about the gold mine, the upcoming, wedding,etc. The last chapter felt really rushed.u:
