Extremely good readBy RooseveltWrightAfter watching the old John Wayne Movie I decided to read the novel. I was not disappointed. The descriptions of inner struggle for love and power were insightful and compelling. The flaws of human nature were revealed and the clash of the Titans was colorful and dramatic. It could have moved a little faster, but the slower pace, imagery and colorful characters are what make it a great read. The movie did not do this novel anything close to justice.3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. exciting adventureBy Kindle CustomerA story of the gold rush in Alaska and claim jumpers and the fight that incurs from it. It has great characters and plenty of action with one great fist fight at the end, it also has a mistaken love story through it that was very interesting, a great book that was made into several great movies so buy and enjoy you won't be disappointed.6 of 7 people found the following review helpful. Still Good Reading After More Than A CenturyBy Mike MillerThis is a gripping book that is full of adventure and suspense. Although it was written in 1906, the story is still compelling. It's still such a good story that the book has been made into a movie at least 6 times starting in 1914. I enjoy Rex Beach because although he was known as the "Victor Hugo of the North", he still spent a lot of time in my state, Florida, and his grave is located at Rollins College in Winter Park.

  • Iditarod National Historic Trail I Historic Overview — Robert King
    Iditarod National Historic Trail i Historic Overview — Robert King Introduction: Today’s Iditarod Trail, a symbol of frontier travel and once an important artery of Alaska’s winter commerce, served a string of mining camps, trading posts, and other settlements founded between 1880 and 1920, during Alaska’s Gold Rush Era. Alaska’s gold rushes were an extension of the American mining frontier that dates from colonial America and moved west to California with the gold discovery there in 1848. In each new territory, gold strikes had caused a surge in population, the establishment of a territorial government, and the development of a transportation system linking the goldfields with the rest of the nation. Alaska, too, followed through these same general stages. With the increase in gold production particularly in the later 1890s and early 1900s, the non-Native population boomed from 430 people in 1880 to some 36,400 in 1910. In 1912, President Taft signed the act creating the Territory of Alaska. At that time, the region’s 1 Iditarod National Historic Trail: Historic Overview transportation systems included a mixture of steamship and steamboat lines, railroads, wagon roads, and various cross-country trail including ones designed principally for winter time dogsled travel. Of the latter, the longest ran from Seward to Nome, and came to be called the Iditarod Trail. The Iditarod Trail today: The Iditarod trail, first commonly referred to as the Seward to Nome trail, was developed starting in 1908 in response to gold rush era needs. While marked off by an official government survey, in many places it followed preexisting Native trails of the Tanaina and Ingalik Indians in the Interior of Alaska.

    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} The Books of James C. Patch The Barrier by Gary D. Henry The Real Winston Churchill. Winston Churchill was a crypto-Jew who sold out his country to advance the Rothschilds' program of world domination. The Masonic Jewish central bankers contrive wars for profit, to kill patriots and to degrade and enslave humanity. (Winston Churchill, Illuminati--Originally posted in Aug. 2005) By Henry Makow, Ph.D. After the first Nazi air raid on London Sept. 7, 1940 which killed 306 people, Winston Churchill remarked, "They cheered me as if I'd given them victory, instead of getting their houses bombed to bits ." (416) Churchill is telling the truth. Unknown to Londoners, he had rejected Hitler's proposal to spare civilian targets. Quite the opposite, he goaded Hitler into bombing London by hitting Berlin and other civilian targets first. Churchill told his Air Marshall: "Never mistreat an enemy by halves" and instructed his cabinet, "bombing of military objectives, increasingly widely interpreted, seems our best road home at present." He blocked the Red Cross from monitoring civilian casualties. (440) Before the end of Sept. 1940, 7,000 Londoners including 700 children lay dead. By the end of the war, more than 60,000 British civilians and 650,000 German civilians died from "strategic" bombing. In 1940, Churchill had to divert attacks from RAF airfields but he also wanted to start the bloodletting. A year had passed with little action. It was being called the "phoney war." Hitler was making generous peace offers that prominent Englishmen wanted to accept.

  • The Spoilers (Selig, 1914)
    The Spoilers (Selig, 1914) Il rapporto tra letteratura e cinema è stato molto stretto fin dalle origini di questa forma di spettacolo, tanto da indurre i pionieri del cinema a riproporre il medesimo soggetto anche a distanza di pochi anni, come nel caso di The Spoilers, tratto dall’omonimo romanzo di Rex Beach, pubblicato nel 1905. È una storia ambientata durante la corsa all’oro in Alaska alla fine dell’Ottocento, che ha come protagonisti Roy Glenister, il proprietario di una miniera; Alexander McNamara, un corrotto e rapace agente governativo, e Cherry Malotte, la cui figura è ispirata a Julia Bulette, nota “donna di saloon” della città mineraria di Virginia City, nel Nevada. La prima versione cinematografica è quella prodotta dalla Selig Polyscope Company nel 1914, diretta da Colin Campbell e interpretata da William Farnum, Tom Santschi e Kathlyn Williams. È un northwestern, “genere” diverso e allo stesso tempo molto vicino ai film sul West, con il quale si indicavano pellicole le cui vicende si svolgono nel Grande Nord, in Alaska, nel Klondike o in Canada. Pur girato quasi completamente negli studi cinematografici della Selig a Edendale, alla periferia di Los Angeles, The Spoilers ottiene un buon risultato commerciale non solo grazie alla popolarità dei suoi attori e alla lunga e spettacolare sequenza della scazzottata nel saloon, ma anche come modello dello sviluppo del lungometraggio (9 rulli), quando la media dell’epoca era di 5 o 6 rulli. Il successo del film induce Rex Beach, che aveva ottenuto dalla Selig una grossa percentuale sui profitti del film, a creare una propria casa di produzione cinematografica.

Webfooters Post Card Club PO Box 17240 Portland OR 97217-0240 www.thewebfooters.com Remembering the Wild, Wild West Randolph Scott – Beloved Cowboy George Randolph Scott was born January 23, 1898 and he died March 2, 1987. Scott was an American film actor whose career spanned from 1928 to 1962. As a leading man for all but the first three years of his cinematic career, Scott appeared in a variety of genres, including social dramas, crime dramas, comedies, musicals (albeit in non-singing and non-dancing roles), adventure tales, war films, and a few horror and fantasy films. However, his most enduring image is that of the tall-in-the- saddle Western hero. Out of his more than 100 film appearances over 60 were in westerns. Of all the major stars whose name was associated with the western, Scott most closely identified with it. Scott was considered tall, (at 6 feet 2½ inches), lanky and handsome, Scott displayed an easygoing charm and courtly Southern drawl in his early films that helped offset his limitations as an actor, where he was frequently found to be stiff or "lumbering". As he matured, however, Scott's acting improved while his features became burnished and leathery, turning him into the ideal "strong, silent" type of stoic hero. Randolph Scott was the king of hearts on a series of trade cards with the “PRINTED IN U.S.A.” label. Scott was born in Orange County, Virginia, but he grew up in Charlotte, North Carolina, the second of six children born to parents of Scottish-American descent.
