EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white aerial photograph showcases the picturesque town of Haines, located on the Chilkat Peninsula in Alaska between approximately 1900 and 1930. Nestled between the Chilkoot Inlet and the Chilkat Mountains, Haines was a thriving frontier settlement during the early 20th century. The image reveals Fort Seward, a former military installation, situated at the heart of the community. The pier juts out into the inlet, providing a vital connection to the outside world. The meeting of land and water creates a breathtaking landscape, with the pier and Fort Seward standing as prominent features against the backdrop of the rugged terrain. The photograph offers a glimpse into the rich heritage of this historic Alaskan town, providing a window into the past and the challenges and opportunities that came with settling the frontier in North America. This photograph is part of the extensive collection of the Library of Congress and serves as a testament to the enduring beauty and history of Haines, Alaska.
