This true narrative published in 1898 is the basis for Klondike which is a three-part mini-series by the Discovery Channel that was broadcast on January 20-22, 2014. It was the network's first-ever scripted miniseries and was directed by Simon Cellan Jones and executive produced by Ridley Scott. Klondike stars Richard Madden and Augustus Prew as two adventurers who travel to the Yukon, Canada, in the late 1890s during the Klondike Gold Rush. The story centers on the friendship of two adventurers, Bill Haskell and Byron Epstein, as they travel Northwest during the Klondike Gold Rush. Along the way they "must navigate harsh conditions, unpredictable weather and desperate, dangerous characters", yet supported by mill owner Belinda Mulrooney and aspiring writer Jack London.

With over 100 illustrations and maps, Mary Hitchcock's incredible Alaskan adventure brings to life the kinds of stories which for many were pure fiction. While the miners were normally men, women also came North seeking adventure and employment. Vaudevillian performers like Klondike Kate made a name for themselves travelling from one mining camp to another entertaining the workers.
