Lillian Alling

In 1926, Lillian Alling, a European immigrant, walked all the way from New York to Dawson City, Yukon, crossing the North American continent on foot, finally sailing down the Yukon River to the Bering Sea, trying to make her way home to Eastern Europe. Lillian Alling: The Journey Home is a collection of personal documents, first-hand recollections, family tales and archival research that provide tantalizing new clues to Lillian’s story.
