Fort Herchmer, Dawson, Y.T., past & present / by Edward F. Bush.: R61-2/7-78E-PDF

"The purpose of this paper is to tell the story of the once neat and thriving North-West Mounted Police post established at the confluence of the Klondike and Yukon rivers in the summer of 1897, of which but four buildings stand today. … Part I of this paper will relate the history of the post, for which unfortunately source material, other than perhaps the Dawson Daily News, becomes meagre after 1914. Part II will describe existing individual buildings dating from the post's early years, and Part III past buildings for which some information is available."--Introduction, page 1.
