A Woman Who Went to Alaska

by May Kellogg Sullivan

She went from a passenger on a nice cruiser to a dish washer where some of the passengers snubbing her when she'd taken a job dishwashing upon arriving in Nome. Then she took a job as a cook at a gold mine, then later on as a teacher/nanny. She was resourceful and did what she had to do. I found it really interesting how many different living accomodations she found her self in.
