Aljaska en de Canada-spoorweg by Anonymous
"Aljaska en de Canada-spoorweg" is a travelogue written by an anonymous author, likely in the late 19th century. The book chronicles an extensive journey through Canada and Alaska, showcasing the landscapes, people, and experiences encountered along the way. The narrative appears to delve into the author's personal observations and reflections as they navigate the transcontinental route via train and ship. The opening of the travelogue introduces the reader to the author's voyage
across the Atlantic Ocean aboard the ship Normandie. The various entries recount the progression of the journey, noting the changing weather and landscapes as they approach America. The author describes the sights along the way, transitions from sea to land, and their eagerness to travel through Canada towards Alaska. Notable mentions include the bustling atmosphere of the ship during the national holiday, the landscapes seen from the deck, and reflections on the importance and challenges of building the Canadian Pacific Railroad. This rich and descriptive beginning sets the tone for an adventure filled with exploration, cultural encounters, and the contemplation of the evolving Canadian and Alaskan territories.
