Far Corner is the saga of a latter-day pioneer who invaded the Pacific Northwest wearing the only derby hat those parts had ever seen. Author Stewart H. Holbrook bought the ha in Boston just before he boarded the steam-cars to seek fame and fortune amidst the books and busts of the roaring '20's. On his journey, he discovered thee were still people who liked fried elk for breakfast and noticed that not all cowboys wee six feet tall and lithe. He was delighted with a hamlet named Pluvius because one year it rained for 362 days and the other three day, according to the sole resident,"was goddam cloudy."

Travel

Alaska is a great place to visit... and a bad place to die It is said that when the first snow of early winter--the "termination dust"--starts to fall, it's time for visitors to leave Alaska's wonders behind. For some, it's already too late. Jim Hampton's Yukon vacation takes a turn for the worse when he discovers a prospector's diary from the 1800s. And it dies when the rugged outdoorsman is arrested for the gruesome slaying of a controversial ex-Senator. But Alex Jensen isn't convinced of Hampton's guilt. And the dedicated state trooper is ready to track the bitter truth through the treacherous snows of the Yukon wilderness--and in the pages of a mysterious, hundred-year-old journal, which describes crimes remarkably similar... and deadly.
