One of the oddest and most mysterious stories of the Alaska Gold Rush is the fate of the steamship Jessie.  Depending on who you choose to believe, it is either the largest massacre of whites by Indians in Alaska history or it is absolute historical garbage. Further, this being said, the entire saga of the steamship Jessie is odd, and it will take a knowledge of the Alaska Gold Rush to explain the intricacies.
