Publication history
Most of the chapters were done in the second Gladstone era (1993-1998; except for Last Sled to Dawson, which was first published in 1988, during Gladstone's original 1986-1990 run), and published in Gladstone's Uncle Scrooge (except for Hearts of the Yukon, which was printed by Gladstone in Walt Disney Giant #1) up until The Cowboy Captain of the Cutty Sark.

Three stories were done later, during the Gemstone era (2003-2008), which are The Sharpie of the Culebra Cut, The Prisoner of White Agony Creek and The Dream of a Lifetime. The Prisoner of White Agony Creek, at the time of its release of the Companion, was the only story not previously printed in an American comic book and had only appeared in European prints by then.

Even though The Dream of a Lifetime and The Last Sled to Dawson are not really parts of The Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck, they fit into the compilation because they deal with Scrooge when he was younger.
