Another Summer: The Yellowstone Park and Alaska

The more I think of it, the more I find this conclusion impressed upon me, that the greatest thing a human soul ever does in this world is to see something and tell what it saw in a plain way.--RUSKIN.

With the Compliments of the Author.

PREFACE.

In the spring of 1892, a party was made up for a trip to Alaska. The different members thereof were to cross the continent by such routes as they pleased, and meet at Portland, Oregon, on the second of July. This plan was followed, and all the party boarded the steamer Queen at Tacoma, prepared for the journey of a thousand miles up the coast of Alaska.

Some account of this, and also of an excursion to the Yellowstone Park, made on the way westward, is given in the following pages.
