The First Passenger Train Over the White Pass and Yukon Route to Klondike in Pursuit of Gold, c1900 Creator: A.E. Huitt

The First Passenger Train Over the White Pass and Yukon Route to Klondike in Pursuit of Gold, c1900. For some months past rumour had been whispering of the discovery of an enormously rich gold-field in Canada. On the 29th August [1897] a steamer arrived at Vancouver, British Columbia, carrying thirty-five miners from the Yukon River, in Alaska, who brought with them £40, 000 worth of gold, the outward and visible sign of a great discovery in the Klondike, but one which was to lead to political complications with the United States'. Engraving after a photograph. From "Cassell's History of England, Vol. IX". [Cassell and Company, Limited, London, Paris, New York & Melbourne]
