They played for high stakes in Alaska! This rousing adaptation of a Jack London short story was shot in the majestic Big Bear Lake in California. The story centers on Sadie Martin, Irene Rich, the plucky owner and operator of a riverboat frequently used by miners traveling to their claims. Hard up for cash, Sadie is left with no choice but to sell her beloved riverboat-but before she can the malicious Yukon Mining Co. Sends one of their stooges to take it from her! Featuring a stirring performance by three-time Oscar Nominee Charles Bickford, Queen of the Yukon is the story of one woman's struggle against a corrupt establishment.
