Profusely illustrated in black and white with historic photographs, and includes reproductions of watercolor paintings by James A Lawrence (these also shown in black and white).

The story begins while Nevada was still part of the Utah Territory, and extends to the middle of the twentieth century.

The intelligently presented bibliography will prove invaluable to researchers An important book about western Nevada.'' Originally published in 1972, this is the second printing.
