The Stained Glass Dog Team: The Mystery Behind a Craftsman's Contribution to the History of Seattle (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781500498443)

"It dates from about 1910 and until some time in the 1980s it was part of the Alaskan Cigar Store in the building that was originally the old Arctic Club. . . . Two companion stained glass pieces are still there, but they are less interesting." With that bit of information the search was on for the history of the compelling image of a sled dog team in stained glass. The story involved two social organizations, three hotels, and peripheral forays into the Klondike gold rush, the 1909 Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition, Seattle's Museum of History and Industry, and a fascinating look at the unique forces which helped shape the city of Seattle and the futures of Alaska and the Yukon Territory.
