The Alaska Sourdough Who Survived 32 Years in the Frozen North

INTRO
In 1900, an 18-year-old boy arrived in Alaska with 31 dollars in his pocket and a stupid dream. He wasn't looking for gold, like the hundreds of men crowding with him on the deck of an overloaded ship. He didn't even know where Alaska was on a map. Thirty-two years later, that same boy would drive a team of half-wolf dogs from the Arctic Circle to the White House, becoming a living legend who would change the destiny of an entire territory. This is the story of how an absolute failure became the toughest man the North had ever known.
