Summary

Martha was an independent 32-year old when she headed for the Klondike in 1898. She endured the grueling Chilkoot Trail, traveled by boat down the Yukon River, and worked placer gold claims while living in a crude log cabin. She went on to become a successful businesswoman, owning a mining camp and managing a sawmill. At the age of 70, she was elected to the Canadian Parliament. Book jacket.
