N2  - "Trails and Tramps in Alaska and Newfoundland" by William S. Thomas is a travelogue written in the early 20th century. The book recounts the author’s hunting trips and explorations in the breathtaking wilderness of Alaska and Newfoundland, blending narratives of adventure with rich descriptions of the natural scenery and wildlife. It seems to not only detail the pursuit of big game but also reflect a deep appreciation for the landscapes and cultures encountered along the journey.  The opening of the work introduces the reader to the preparations and the atmosphere aboard a steamer bound for Alaska, filled with various people embarking on different adventures. The author captures the poignant farewells of a young man leaving his home for the North, setting a backdrop of emotional significance and the spirit of adventure. As the journey progresses, the narrative brings to life the sights and sounds of the coastal waters, the quaint village of Ketchikan, and the presence of notable historical figures like the Secretary of the Interior. Thomas sets the stage for adventure with a well-detailed experience on board, revealing his keen observational skills and passion for the natural world around him.
