OPPORTUNITY IN ALASKA by George Suddborg

OPPORTUNITY IN ALASKA

By

Publisher: Macmillan

Actively connected with Alaska, as newspaperman, supervisor of its civil service agency, and economist for National Resources, the author gives a careful coverage to substantial, but not unlimited, opportunities for those seriously considering the Territory for future settlement. A book of facts about climate, districts, cities, about potential chances in foresting, agriculture, livestock, fishing, mining, constructing, the transport and tourist trade, about where you can got more information, about the qualities the future dweller will need for success. A book that contrasts facts with myths, that balances the discouraging against the encouraging, that is not without dry humor.
