The story follows two brothers, Earl and Randolph Portney, who, after enduring financial hardships back home in Maine, seize an opportunity to travel to Alaska and seek their fortunes during the gold rush spurred by discoveries at Klondike Creek. The tale captures the adventurous spirit of young men eager for excitement and success in a time when the allure of untapped wealth drew many to perilous journeys. The opening of the novel introduces the Portney brothers as they face debt and impending loss of their timberland home due to a defaulting lumber company. Their fortunes take a dramatic turn when they receive a letter from their Uncle Foster, who invites them to join him on a trip to the Alaskan gold fields. The brothers decide to embark on this adventure, leading them to sell their belongings and navigate various challenges in Boston while preparing for their journey. Their excitement is palpable but interspersed with uncertainties about survival and success in the harsh, unfamiliar landscape of Alaska.
