The in-between chapters that Don Rosa did not tell in his 12-part series include: A time-travel story by Magica DeSpell (which was drawn before the main series was started) and ties with episode 1; Scrooge McDuck’s trip on the Cutty Sark just in time to see the explosion of Krakatoa; his fight with the Dalton bros, helped by Buffalo Bill, Annie Oakley and Geronimo; his encounter with T. Roosevelt during the excavation of the Panama canal; and most importantly, more on his Yukon days and his relationship with Glittering Goldie, to whom he teaches how hard miners work when she tries to steal his gold and deed. The volume is capped with “The dream of a lifetime”, revisiting in dreams his youthful adventures and, maybe, finally getting to enjoy the happy ending with Goldie that he missed in real life.

Όποιος διαβάζει τον "Βίο και την Πολιτεία", συχνά παρατηρεί κάποια κενά ανάμεσα στις ιστορίες, κάποιες αναφορές σε περιπέτειες που δεν γνωρίζει και πλήθος ερωτημάτων, όπως το τι συνέβη τελικά με την μυστηριώδη Γκόλντυ. Για να λυθούν όλες αυτές οι απορίες, ο Ρόσα εξέδωσε μια ακόμη σειρά με όλα τα χαμένα επεισόδια της ζωής του Σκρουτζ. Ο δεύτερος πολυτελής τόμος, περιλαμβάνει ακόμη περισσότερες περιπέτειες, όπως το "επεισόδιο 0", το ταξίδι του Σκρουτζ με το Κάτυ Σαρκ το διασημότερο ιστιοφόρο όλων των εποχών, την ιστορία με την αιχμάλωτη του Χείμαρρου της Αγωνίας κ.ά.

Scrooge McDuck's life story has more narrative twists, substantive character moments, and storytelling tricks than any superhero "event." I can only wish for comics to be "for kids" the way this series was.

This should be read in conjunction with the L&T. More great stuff. "Hearts of the Yukon" will break your heart.

This is a great companion piece for the Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck series with great in-between issues and a fantastic last story with Inception before Inception with Donald going inside Scrooge mind to stop Beagle Boys from finding out the combination to his huge vault in Duckburg.

I liked it, but it is not as good as The Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck. Nevertheless, it was still funny and I enjoyed the episodes on the Klondike...

Such a heartbreaking love story. What could have been...

This volume includes stories of Scrooge's life prior to acquiring his fortune. Interspersed among the stories are blurbs from the author giving further details on the stories and sometimes his process. The whole thing was really interesting and I've always loved Scrooge b/c I was a huge Duck Tales fan growing up. I've even got them all on dvd now.

A good follow up to the Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck but it is understandable that this chapters did not make it to the big companion.

Ah, tässä on niiiiiiiin monta lempparitarinaa! Oon aina tykännyt hirveästi mm. Cutty Sharkin Cowboykapteenista ja Hämäyksen hurrikaanista — jo ne ilahduttavat. Mutta sitten on vielä White Agony Creekin vanki JA Yukonin sydämet, ja jonnekin sisälleni hautaamani romantikko-osioni parkuu ja nyyhkii ja iloitsee tästä ihanasta traagisesta rakkaustarinasta. Ihanan romanttista, kuten Rosa itsekin sanoo. Kaiken kruunaa ihana Unelmoiden läpi elämän, jonka lopun onnenkyyneleinen nukkuva Roope on ehkä ihanin juttu koko maailmassa.

Parhautta! Rosa on nero.

Jag visste inte att Farbror Joakims liv: när Yokons hjärtan glimmar och andra äventyr existerade förrän förra året, något som jag har svårt att förstå. Jag har älskat den första boken, Farbror Joakims liv sedan barnsben och har alltid velat ha mer. Denna bok gav ett avslut som jag så gärna velat ha på den första boken (ni som läst den förstår säker vad jag menar).

Jag njöt verkligen av att läsa denna bok för första gången som vuxen. Historierna var på samma nivå som i originalet, fastän de var mera för att ge mer material åt originalhistorierna än att förse läsaren med nya äventyr. Jag måste erkänna att näst sista kapitlet inte riktigt var "up to standard", men i övrigt tyckte jag nästan lika mycket om denna bok som den första.
