ALASKA and its RESOURCES.

By W. H. DALL,

Director of the Scientific Corps of the Western Union Telegraph
Expedition.
Full Octavo, with nearly One Hundred Elegant Illustrations, engraved by
the late JOHN ANDREW, from drawings by the Author. This volume contains
not only the record of a THREE YEARS residence in Alaska—made under the
most favorable circumstances for explorations—but a complete history of
the country gathered from every available source. It is very full in
details of Productions, Climate, Soil, Temperature, Language, the
Manners and Customs of its peoples, etc., etc.; and is the most
valuable, as well as the most authentic, addition to the history of
Alaska. And is one of the most elegant books issued in America.
