A Visit To A Reindeer Farm In Alaska Towns
The narrative sketches St Michael Alaska with its summer bustle and old Russian outposts. It recalls a 1200 head reindeer herd kept by a Haquimo aquaw proprietor, their value for meat and teams, and a growing deer industry along the lower Yukon. The account notes the town’s wooden fort, abandoned ships, mastodon finds, and harsh seasonal life.
