56548Pullman & Seattle WA: Frank A. Golder 1912. Atlas folio. Five leaves sized from 12 x 22 in. up to 22.75 x 28 in. 1st. - Pencil manuscript on hand-ruled graph chart w/ boxes all filled in some additions on thick yellow paper stock two pieces taped together on verso; 2nd - Original typescript w/ some corrections made on typing paper two pieces taped on verso minor tear creasing; 3rd -- Blueprint from typescript; 4 & 5 both typescript copies on thin typing paper couple minor closed tears still VG set. Original manuscript and typescript tables prepared by Golder 1877-1929 for early lectures on Russian economic and diplomatic history and “A Survey of Alaska 1743-1799†1913. Published in the Washington Historical Quarterly these charts trace the growth and economic impact of the Russian fur trade from the 18th Century into the 19th Century. At the time Golder was unable to find one single source of the information so he created his own charts and they chronicle the growth and impact of the fur trade in Alaska breaking down not only all the vessels navigators and owners but also the types of cargo including beaver fox sea otter otter tails sea bears sea lions whale mustaches walrus tusks blue arctic fox and their values. The two additional typescript tables separate out the furs from the Chelichof and Golikofs Co. i.e. Shelikhov-Golikov Co. from 1786-1797 notorious for their massacres of indigenous Alutiiqs in 1784 on Kodiak Island known as the Awa’uq Massacre allowing the Russian Co. control over the island. Directly afterwards Golder spent the next decade actively working in Russian Archives during the Russian Revolution and eventually produced his Guide to Materials for American History in Russian Archives and built the massive Slavic language collection at the Hoover War History Collection.

First edition of this sensationalistic Klondike gold rush memoir recounting the experiences of 18 gold seekers from the YMCA setting out from New York Feb. 1 1897. After voyaging on a condemned brigantine with a drunken captain they purportedly attempted the Malaspina Glacier trek to the gold fields traversing from Yakutat Bay across the Wrangell-St. Elias range and dropping into the headwaters of the Tanana and Yukon Rivers.
