About the book

"The Yukon is famous for the Klondike gold rush, but it was the site of another major mineral discovery in 1918 that touched off its own stampede of sourdoughs and eventually produced more paydirt than the Klondike. This was the fabulously rich Keno Hill silver deposit, which made the Yukon one of the world's leading silver producers and backstopped the territorial economy for decades. The story of Keno's discovery, development and decline is one of the great adventures of the North, and it is told here by one of the Yukon's legendary mining personalities, Dr. Aaro Aho."--BOOK JACKET.
