[0-380-73309-9]
In this sequel to Jason's Gold, we find Jason and his girl
Jamie entering a  1,7000 mile race down the Yukon from Dawon
to Nome where the latest gold rush has hit.  He needs the
prize money to buy back the mill which his brother lost
gambling. Once again Hobbs has written an excellent piece of
historical fiction.  Not only does the reader learn about
the period but they are treated to an excellent advenure in
this 193 page book.  Hobbs does not lose the story with
historical facts, which so often happens.
