1897 A Mark Sutherland Adventure (Mark Sutherland Adventures) by Kimberly Mullins. This is such a good historical fiction read. Its the story of reporter Mark Sutherland and his desires to travel to the Yukon to cover the new gold rush. He’s in Chicago right now and he’s not sure how he will get there though. This read covers all kinds of things in the 1800’s including the oil boom in Oklahoma and a weird thing landing in Texas. We learn all about how hard life is in this time period and how so many people die. Without the comforts of what we know now life is very hard. Thinking this Gold rush will be similar to the one in California he thinks it will be somewhat easy to cover. Along the way to the Yukon he meets several people including one lady he has interest in. Romance, mystery and history are all in this book. I love this author’s writing I actually felt like I was in these places and time period while I was reading. Great Historical mystery!
