About the Project
Early in July 1867, naturalist Joseph Dyer and his team were in Alaska working with the Yukon Division of the Western Union Telegraph Expedition. Dyer’s brief report gives us detailed observations of a world still unknown to most of the world at the time. Join volunpeers to transcribe Dyer’s report and learn about the “Devil’s Slue” and the arduous job of erecting just one mile of poles for telegraph cable.
