Frederick Schwatka is credited with naming more physical features in Alaska, the Yukon and British Columbia than any of his late-nineteenth-century contemporaries. Schwatka’s Last Search: The New York Ledger Expedition Through Unknown Alaska and British America Including the Journal of Charles Willard Hayes, 1891 concerns his third and final excursion. His mission was to cover as much unmapped country as possible to provide lively copy for his sponsor, The New York Ledger. This book is his personal narrative. Photos, maps are included.
