Notes: Sheldon Jackson (1834–1909) was a Presbyterian missionary who also became a political leader. During this career he travelled about 1 million miles (1.6 million km) and established over 100 missions and churches in the Western United States. He is best remembered for his extensive work during the final quarter of the 19th century in the massive, rugged and remote U.S. territory which in 1959 would become the 49th state, Alaska. - Wikipedia.

This edition originally published at least as late as 1883. The 1880 edition does not include the final chapter, chapter 12, "The Native Population of Alaska According to the Census of 1880". Page 328 states this was an address delivered in 1883. The year 1883 is also mentioned on p. 371.

This reprint stops at p. 399 (in mid-sentence), but actually there is a p. 400 approximately 1 paragraph long.
