Bear-hunting in the White Mountains: Or, Alaska and British Columbia Revisited (1891)

Heywood Walter Seton-Karr, British former Army captain of the Gordon Highlanders, one of the British Army's most celebrated regiments, journeyed to Alaska in 1886. While on route, he ran into two American citizens, William Libbey of Princeton, New Jersey, and Frederick Schwatka, a US Army officer who had earlier voyaged the Yukon River, and joined with them in an excursion to scale Mt. St. Elias, payed for by the New York Times. Along with his drawings, Seton-Karr wrote a journal. In 1890 he traveled Alaska and British Columbia hunting big horns and bear. He was a Fellow of the Royal Geographical Society and authored books on travel and big game hunting and archaeology.
