River Time: Racing the Ghosts of the Klondike Rush is the story of two men following in the footsteps of their grandfather on a journey that changed his life and determined theirs. Firth brings to life the vivid scenery of the Yukon and the stark reality of the hardships faced by three men stampeding from Dyea to Dawson, separated by a century. One seeking the future; the others, the past.
