The Story of 'Yankee Doodle'

By Stuart Murray
](https://imagesfromthepast.com/wp1/product/americas-song-2/) - Our country's military and political history traced through the constantly evolving lyrics of the inveterate tune, "Yankee Doodle" from Henry Hudson's arrival in 1609 to the War of 1812 - from a Dutch folk tune to becoming America's Song. The first book ever to chronicle the origins of our most famous tune, recognized the world over as "America's Song.” The legacy of "Yankee Doodle" is as rich as the heritage of America, originating in an ancient folk air brought to the New World by Dutch colonists in the 1600s. A century later, a British officer set his own verses to the melody, which mocked New England militia. "Yankee Doodle" was despised by colonials until the Revolution, when it was transformed from a song of insult into America's most stirring anthem of defiance and of victory. Illustrated with 32 period images and four maps. - [Finnigans, Slaters, and Stonepeggers

](https://imagesfromthepast.com/wp1/product/to-the-klondike-and-back/) - Adventurous 22-year-old George G. Shaw was determined to strike it rich in the Klondike gold fields when he headed west from Vermont in 1894 first to Seattle and then on to Alaska and the Yukon Territory.

In the Klondike, mining for gold challenged Shaw's considerable skills and strength, but he persevered, buoyed by his confidence and resourcefulness. After his gold-mining days, Shaw's adventures continued with a solo trek through remote Alaska and a storm-tossed schooner voyage that landed him in Siberia. Seven years later he returned home with some money in his pockets and memories to last a lifetime. Over the years he savored and shared the vivid recollections of his personal experiences as a gold miner and traveler with his son. To the Klondike and Back is by George G.
