Language: English Brand New Book ***** Print on Demand *****.Excerpt from The Trail of a Sourdough: Life in Alaska While the word Sourdough (sour dough) is perfectly familiar to those in Alaska and along the Pacific Coast it may not be amiss to give a brief explanation to our Eastern readers. A Sourdough is a miner who has spent one winter in Alaska and has seen the ice go out. Mrs. Sullivan is a Sourdough herself. In all she has made seven trips to Alaska extending over a period of ten years. When miners are beyond the pale of civilization, with a supply of flour but no baking powder, yeast or potatoes, they cut from each batch of bread dough a little piece, to be kept until it turns sour, and then used as leaven for the next baking. It is through this custom that the miners themselves came to be called sourdoughs. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
