Book excerpt: "A Klondike Claim" is an early American "dime novel" published in 1897 by Street & Smith Publishers of New York. It introduces athletic, clever, handsome Harvey Stokes, a college grad who was more interested in athletics than scholarship and is now traveling the world. He seems to have an aptitude for detective work and this is put to the test with three different cases in the one story. The book is set against a backdrop of Alaska (or at least what a writer in New York thought would pass for Alaska) during the height of the Klondike gold rush.
