"A Gold Hunter's Experience" is an ancient adventure biography story book written by Chalkley J. Hambleton. Through the book's pages, viewers are taken to the rough landscapes of the United West, wherein fantasies of fortune struggle with the harsh records of pioneer lifestyles. Hambleton's narrative is immersed in the adventure and exploration genres, giving a man or woman picture of the difficulties and achievements encountered while human beings are seeking their fortunes in the wild. He establishes a bright photo of the never-finishing hunt of gold with vivid descriptions and testimonies, from the backbreaking exertions of my own to the acute contention among prospectors. But, beyond the charm of wealth, "A Gold Hunter's Experience" explores into subject matters of resilience, tenacity, and relationships that are fashioned inside the crucible of struggle. Hambleton's prose is overflowing with honesty and real enthusiasm, evoking the essence of an in advance time with honesty and recognize.

Experiences of Gold Hunters in Alaska is a classic account of the Valdez-Copper River phase of the great Klondike Gold Rush of 1898 and a topnotch narrative of a real-life Alaskan adventure. Unlike most written histories of that gold rush that tell of the passage to Dyea or Skagway, over the Chilkoot Pass and White Pass, and down to the Klondike fields in Yukon, Charles Margeson tells the story that he and 3500 other gold seekers experienced as they traversed the Valdez Glacier and descended the Klutina River to the Copper River. The author describes his journey beginning in Missouri in 1897 and resulted in a trip from Seattle to Alaska and back to Seattle in 1898. The book covers the early story of Valdez and the hazards encountered in the Tonsena (now Tonsina) Valley. Although they discovered little gold, their quest made a difference for their efforts resulted in the exploration and development of much of Southcentral and Interior Alaska. They established the port city of Valdez which was to become the major transportation and shipping corridor from interior to coastal Alaska--a corridor now more famous for its black than yellow gold.

Excerpt from A Gold Hunter's Experience Early in the summer of 1860 I had a bad attack of gold fever. In Chicago the conditions for such a malady were all favorable. Since the panic of 1857 there had been three years of general depression, money was scarce, there was little activity in business, the outlook was discouraging, and I, like hundreds of others, felt blue. Gold had been discovered in the fall of 1858 in the vicinity of Pike's Peak, by a party of Georgian prospectors, and for several years afterward the whole gold region for seventy miles to the north was called "Pike's Peak."
