Shawn Hall has devoted his career to exploring and recording historic sites, ghost towns, and abandoned mining camps in each of Nevada's seventeen counties. Hall is director of the Tonopah Historic Mining Park in Nye County, Nevada.
"Hall presents a vast about of detail in an accessible,
informative, and entertaining manner. The selection and quantity of
photographs will add much to the historical value and popularity of
this book." --Harold E. Klieforth, Desert Research
Institute--Harold E. Klieforth "Desert Research Institute"
"Hall's handy guide to the ghost towns and mining camps of Eureka,
Lander, and White Pine counties is superior to many others
currently available. His exuberance and fascination with Nevada's
glorious mining past is infectious." --Phillip I. Earl, Nevada
Historical Society--Phillip I. Earl "Nevada Historical Society"
"What sets this fine effort apart from many of the rest is its
regional specificity: it covers just three counties in eastcentral
Nevada instead of an entire state or region. The result is a guide
which covers more than 180 sites with directions to, and a brief
historical profile of, each." --Books of the Southwest-- "Books of
the Southwest"
