In a long letter to his parents, Stefan gives us an inside story of what it is like to be caught up in the 1890s Gold Rush in Alaska. We must admire the determination of this sensitive, courageous youth to overcome endless obstacles in his pursuit of his dream––gold. He lets us feel the thrill of finding his first gold nugget. Driven by gold fever, he embarks on a series of exciting adventures, from the vast wilderness of Alaska to exotic landscapes in South America, Africa, India, Australia, and back to the Klondike. Although his obsession to find gold develops into greed, his travels have a maturing effect on the callow youth. After many hardships have ravished his body and frustration of his goal to strike it rich, Stefan responds to the outcry of his neglected soul. Instead of riches he achieves spiritual peace.
