Description
Wheels churning, smoke billowing, sparks spewing, steamboats reigned supreme in Alaska's great interior from 1901 to 1923, leaving a colorful legacy along the Yukon, Tanana and Chena rivers. In "Steamboats on the Chena," Dr. Basil Hedrick and Susan Savage weave a readable and well documented history of steamboats and the development of early Fairbanks.
