Tales From Alaska by Rex Beach Era Explorer
A narrator recounts time in Bristol Bay and Rampart with Alaska Packers men, detailing the King and Queen of Behring Sea, native camps around Nushagak to Koggiung, and a Floating Court of Alaska. He notes governors, Russians, Japs and Chinese, salmon runs, fishing methods, and travels via Revenue Cutter to Nome and Tanana, ending near Fairbanks on interior Alaska life.
