This book is a work of historical fiction. Names, characters, places, and incidents are a product of the author's imagination or are used fictitiously and are not to be construed as real. Any resemblance to actual events or person, living or dead, is entirely coincidental. Some names of actual participants and events in the Klondike Gold Rush appear though the events described herein are of the author's imagination. The greatest gold rush in history began with a shout and a rush by thousands to get to the gold fields as soon as possible. . . . "The mental pictures of what tomorrow will bring keep running through my mind, and I can't sleep. I've listened to the men describe the climb up those icy steps to the top of the Chilkoot Pass . . . ." Winifred (Freddie), her husband, Leonard, along with his childhood friend, Walt, embark on an amazing journey to find gold in Canada in what would later be referred to as "Klonkdike Fever". Join the trio as Freddie journals about their experience.
