Letters from Hudson Stuck to James Wickersham, 1909-1910.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/42927603

The 1909 letter protests threatened withdrawal of mail service on the Yukon River, the hardship to those living in the region and need for maintaining the trail; also Stuck feels Frederick Cook's claimed ascent of Mt. McKinley was not possible as he described it. The 1910 letter presents the case of two natives who failed to receive payment from the government for moving a reindeer herd from Unalaklik to Bettles.
