Book Description: The Hogarth Press.1956, 1956. First edition. The author’s ”account of her visit to Nome in 1900. The hellish voyage from Seattle on an overcrowded ship, the first impressions of the city of tents on the tundra, the discovery that her brother has become a cross between a saint and a dictator – these lead into a strange, enclosed little world of heroism and racketeering, claim-jumping and militant Christianity. The people [the author] met are a fascinating mixture: a gold miner who had been a detective in the Lizzie Borden case; a group of squatters in the church; a lady who brings her old family silver to start a restaurant at Nome. And there is the passionate, patient Raymond, torn between his desire to leave Nome and settle down with his sister, and his power over the community which needs him so badly.” Fifteen pages of black and white photographs. One map. Endpapers slightly browned. Head and tail of spine and corners slightly bumped. Top corners of prelims slightly creased. Very good in nicked and slightly rubbed, creased, marked, frayed and dusty dustwrapper, by Trekkie Ritchie0 , browned at the edges and slightly faded at the spine.
