"The Great Round World and What Is Going On In It, Vol. 1, No. 41, August 19, 1897" is a weekly publication for boys and girls written in the late 19th century. This book serves as a children's newspaper, offering updates on various global events and topics of interest during a time characterized by exploration, colonization, and the rise of industrialization. The content of this specific issue delves into several significant topics, mainly focusing on the Klondike Gold Rush and its impact on society. It recounts the incredible fortunes obtained by miners and the perilous journeys undertaken to reach the goldfields, warning readers about the harsh realities of gold-seeking life in the Arctic.
