Through The Subarctic Forest: A Record Of A Canoe Journey From Fort Wrangel To The Pelly Lakes And Down The Yukon River To The Behring Sea is a book written by Warburton Pike, first published in 1896. The book is a detailed account of a canoe journey undertaken by the author through the subarctic forest of Alaska and the Yukon Territory. The journey began at Fort Wrangel, a small town in southeastern Alaska, and continued along the Pelly Lakes and down the Yukon River to the Behring Sea. The book provides a vivid description of the natural beauty of the subarctic forest, including the flora and fauna that inhabit the region. Pike also writes about the indigenous people he encountered on his journey, including the Tlingit, Haida, and Athabaskan tribes. He describes their customs, traditions, and way of life, as well as their interactions with the European settlers who were beginning to encroach on their land.Through The Subarctic Forest is not only a travelogue but also a historical document that sheds light on the early exploration of Alaska and the Yukon Territory. Pike's account provides valuable insights into the challenges and dangers faced by early explorers in this remote and unforgiving landscape. The book is a fascinating read for anyone interested in the history and geography of the subarctic region of North America.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
