In the novel The Trail of '98, Robert W. Service raises a typical theme of 19th-century America: the Alaska gold rush. Like many people of the time, the protagonist is a poor emigrant traveling to America for a better life, falling in love on the way and dreaming of earning enough money to get married and live happily. Yet, his way is full of disappointment, bad luck, and important life lessons. It is a great romantic adventure novel about the good and evil in the lives of people able to leave everything in the pursuit of a dream.
