White Sox: The Story Of The Reindeer In Alaska is a book written by William T. Lopp that tells the fascinating story of the introduction of reindeer to Alaska in the late 19th century. The book details the efforts of Sheldon Jackson, a Presbyterian missionary, who brought a group of reindeer from Siberia to Alaska in an attempt to provide a sustainable food source for the native Alaskan population. The book also explores the challenges and triumphs of the men and women who worked to establish the reindeer industry in Alaska, including the White Sox, a group of reindeer herders who became legendary for their skill and courage. Through vivid storytelling and historical research, White Sox: The Story Of The Reindeer In Alaska offers a unique perspective on the history and culture of Alaska, and the important role that reindeer played in shaping the state's identity.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
