EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, Alice Rollins-Crane, an extraordinary American ethnologist, author, businesswoman, and miner, is seen dressed in the garb of a goldseeker, ready to embark on her journey to the legendary Klondike region during the height of the Alaskan Gold Rush in 1905. With a determined expression on her face and a sturdy backpack slung over her shoulders, Rollins-Crane stands out as an anomaly among her male counterparts. Born in 1862, Rollins-Crane defied societal norms by venturing into the male-dominated world of mining and ethnology. Her business acumen was evident as she became a successful gold miner and later, a millionaire. However, her true passion lay in understanding and documenting the cultures of indigenous peoples, particularly the Apache Native Americans. Rollins-Crane's time in Alaska and the Yukon was not without its challenges. She was imprisoned for a short time due to a misunderstanding with the authorities regarding her mining claims. Despite this setback, she continued her exploration of the region and documented her experiences in her books, providing valuable insights into the lives of the gold rush pioneers and the indigenous peoples they encountered. Rollins-Crane's pioneering spirit and unwavering determination paved the way for future generations of women to pursue their passions, whether in the fields of ethnology, mining, or entrepreneurship. This photograph serves as a testament to her indomitable spirit and her contributions to American history.
