Fairbanks Author Dan O’Neill has been enamored with the upper Yukon between Dawson City and Circle for decades. In 2006 he published his travel memoir entitled: A Land Gone Lonesome: An Inland Voyage Along the Yukon River. The book was awarded the Outstanding Alaskana Award by the Alaska Library Association, was named an “Editor’s Choice” by The New York Times, and was selected by National Geographic Travel as part of its “Ultimate Travel Library” along with books by John Steinbeck and Edward Abbey. Even so, it is the least well known of Dan O’Neill’s books, which is tragic, because his documentation of the subsistence lifestyle and the efforts to stamp it out through regulation are essential to understanding interior Alaska.
