Trade Paperback. Histories of the American Frontier Series. 340 pages, including Index, Notes and Bibliography. Illustrated. From the Publisher: “Long out of print, this highly praised classic study of western mining is now available with three new chapters by Elliott West. When originally published in 1963, Professor Pauls book offered the first comprehensive view of western mining as an integral part of the settlement process. In his supplemental chapters, Professor West presents a sweeping social history of mining campsencompassing discussions of gender, class, race, labor, and the environment. The combined scholarship of Paul and West makes a strong case for the transforming effects of the mining frontier on western society in particular and American society in general. The American Historical Review praised the original edition as a fresh, penetrating approach. This revised, expanded edition continues to offer a distinctively vivid voice and an unusually keen eye for telling detail. This book is in New Condition. There is some disturbance to bottom of spine. Please see photos. Shipped with USPS Media Mail. Thank you for your consideration.
