In 1904, the Canadian Bank of Commerce transferred teller Robert W. Service to the Yukon Territory. Soon, he was famous as the poet who chronicled the Klondike gold rush and the savage beauty of the frozen north. His tales of hard-bitten prospectors and sourdoughs in "The Land God Forgot" make vivid, exciting reading. Here are all the brawling, colorful characters that Service immortalized, including One-Eyed Mike, Dangerous Dan McGrew, Pious Pete, Blasphemous Bill--and, of course, the lady known as Lou.

Transport yourself to the untamed world of the Yukon through the immersive verse of poet Robert Service. This collection captures the rugged beauty, adventure, and frontier spirit of the Yukon Territory at the turn of the 20th century. Service's mastery of narrative poetry shines as he chronicles the tales of determined prospectors, hardy adventurers, gamblers, outlaws, and those lured by the call of the North. His ballads evoke the harsh realities and myths of the Gold Rush era in the raw, vibrant language of the common man. Thrill to the danger and drama of the wilderness as Service spins yarns of trailblazers, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, striking riches and elusive gold. Feel the bitterness of an Arctic winter night; experience the rowdy saloons of Dawson City firsthand. Transport back to an era when the lure of the Klondike captured imaginations worldwide. Filled with the smiled-at perils and hard-won triumphs of the unsung heroes and rogues who braved a merciless land, Service's tales overflow with frontier spirit. His rollicking rhymes and rhapsodic free verse masterfully capture the essence of Yukon folklore. This Canadian bard's spellbinding stanzas will whisk you away to the trails, rivers, and mountains of an unbridled time and place.

The Devil’s Highway crosses a stretch of borderland desert in northern Mexico where many immigrants have traveled—and too many have died. It is a despoblado where desperate people defend secret places. But it is also known as El Gran Desierto—a place where stately saguaros stand near aromatic elephant trees, where sand dunes caress the edges of jagged granite mountains, where one can watch bighorn sheep in the morning and whales in the afternoon. Over the years, desert rat Bill Broyles has ventured repeatedly into this sunshot landscape, slogged across its salt flats and sand dunes, and defied its deadly heat. This book chronicles his years of exploration, a vivid and personal introduction to a thorny but ultimately enchanting place that manages to endear itself over time, if it doesn’t kill you first. Michael Berman’s stark black-and-white photographs capture the desolate beauty of the desert while conveying a sense of Broyles’ adventures. Gleaned from more than 4,000 images shot with a large-format camera, these exquisite photographs translate the desert’s formidable monotone into finely tuned studies of light and represent some of the best photos ever taken of this mysterious region. El Gran Desierto is a grand desert indeed, with beauty, spirit, and mystery rivaling any place on Earth, and anyone captivated by the earlier explorations of Lumholtz, Ives, or Hornaday—or by Edward Abbey’s love of desert places—will revel in these modern-day adventures. Sunshot defies the stereotype of a punishing wilderness to show how even the most perilous desert can be alluring if approached with knowledge and respect.
