Rival claims to the Alaskan coal fields, a young government investigator sent north to report on them, and the men who mean to settle the matter their own way. Raine wrote over eighty westerns and was one of the few who had actually punched cattle before he took up the pen. This edition is bound with fifty-seven plates of paintings by William Bradford, George Catlin, Nils Andersson and Charles Furneaux, dating from 1820 to 1925.
