Circle City is a small town (population 86) in northeast
Alaska. It's very close to the
Arctic Circle, on the south bank of the
Yukon River at the edge of the
Yukon Flats, 160 miles northeast of
Fairbanks.
The only reason I know about it is my great-grandfather lived there for a few years on and off when he was mining for gold in the Yukon. He met Jack London there and said he had bad manners and wasn't such a good cook.
