This document consists of selections from the 13th, 14th, and 15th Annual report of the Alaska Game Commission which discuss the Susitna River basin and hydroelectric power potential. These pages may be of interest to project planners of the Susitna-Watana Hydroelectric Project and researchers studying power development in Alaska during the 1950s and its potential effects on wildlife. These annual reports cover the reporting period July 1, 1951 to June 30, 1954. These selected pages discuss moose and caribou in the Susitna basin (population and density, calving, harvest, re-introduction) and "river basin studies", which address hydroelectric power proposals.

Covering vast distances in time and space, Yukon: The Last Frontier begins with the early Russian fur trade on the Aleutian Islands and closes with what Melody Webb calls 'the technological frontier'. Colourful and impeccably researched, her history of the Yukon Basin of Canada and Alaska shows how much and how little has changed there in the last two centuries. Successive waves of traders, trappers, miners, explorers, soldiers, missionaries, settlers, steamboat pilots, road builders, and aviators have come to the Yukon, bringing economic and social changes, but the immense land 'remains virtually untouched by permanent intrusions.'
