This book addresses that omission. Through family letters, news clippings, memoirs, photographs, and stories, Joann Robertson illuminates a period of Yukon history never before covered in one book. Her heartfelt narrative weaves a historically accurate account of a time before the highways were built and the Yukon changed forever.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mistyriverbooks.com\/\">Misty River Books<\/a> is located at 103 &#8211; 4710 Lazelle Avenue in Terrace, B.C.
