Book details
Summary
Description
A. Richard Eskew brings to life the hilarious history and truthful accounts of lesser notables from the Era of Gold Fever. In the same genre as Jack London, the pages of "Legends, Tall Tales and Outright Lies" provide insight into the taming of Alaska and the Yukon as well as some audacious, knee-slapping stretching of the truth. The characters and their encounters are brought back to life in some stories, while others come to life through Rich Eskew's exceptional imagination and ability to tell a tale. Frost-butt Willie - Ed Jesson - Snow Snakes - A cuss named Gus - Three Finger Wilson - The Sourtoe Cocktail - and all the others are given their place of notoriety.
