Book Synopsis The Diggings Are Silent by : Wendy Jane Evans
Download or read book The Diggings Are Silent written by Wendy Jane Evans and published by Interactive Publications. This book was released on 2004 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Award-winning journalist Wendy Evans makes the transition from fact to fiction in this long-awaited collection of short stories. Her incisive wit made her a popular columnist in Perth, and now turns over the dust in many corners of Australia. The poet stirs the senses, the dramatist tears the emotions, the satirist pokes fun at beloved institutions. In the tradition of storytellers like Henry Lawson, there is great warmth and true compassion. Here, too, is a dark side, and a creative imagination which takes the reader to some very strange places. This is a polished collection of well-constructed, lively short stories, brought to life by skilfully developed characters and their amusing banter. - Morag Kobez-Halvorson The stories have an intrinsically Australian character with wide appeal. The author sometimes gives you a wink at the end to leave a smile on your face. While there are serious and heart-rending moments, I found myself laughing aloud on many occasions, a great tonic for our troubled times. - Sara Moss
Book Synopsis Life on the Plains and Among the Diggings by : Alonzo Delano
Download or read book Life on the Plains and Among the Diggings written by Alonzo Delano and published by Ann Arbor [Mich.] : University Microfilms. This book was released on 1854 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The discovery of gold in California began an emigration movement across the plains the like of which has been rarely seen. It also resulted in a flood of memoirs and journals describing the trip and the life of amateur miners in the gold diggings of California. One of the best of these narratives was written by Alonzo Delano, a citizen of Illinois beset with chills and fever, for whom his doctors prescribed the curious remedy of a trip to California--by ox wagon. He, in company with neighbors from his Illinois community, set out in the spring of 1849 and made the long trek to northern California with a typical wagon train of emigrants"--Foreword.

Book excerpt: This book is a travelog to Australia, written by James Armour, who spent three years there during the Australian gold rush. The reason why the author decides to put his experiences in writing is because, "[It] was written specially for a small circle of intimate acquaintances, who varied the dullness of village life by meeting once a week to read manuscript essays and selections from favorite authors. The time allowed for reading being limited, and the audience being partly composed of young people, I confined myself mainly to personal experience."

Download or read book Die Rich Here written by Ralph Reynolds and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2012-08 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After searching for sixty years for a long-lost gold mine known as the Adams Diggings, Ralph Reynolds tells all he's learned. This is a rousing tale of Apache cunning and Yankee gullibility. And it's a story of lost lives, emptied souls, and misguided senses in a land of magnificent mountains, mesas, and canyons. His book delivers evidence that three or more prospecting parties were massacred after they located the diggings and the startling implications of these events. And most rewardingly, it tells how, and most likely from where, the gold nuggets were clandestinely removed late in the nineteenth century and why and where the mother lode may soon be found.

Book Synopsis Prehistoric Copper Mining in Michigan by : John R. Halsey
Download or read book Prehistoric Copper Mining in Michigan written by John R. Halsey and published by U OF M MUSEUM ANTHRO ARCHAEOLOGY. This book was released on 2018-01-01 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Isle Royale and the counties that line the northwest coast of Michigan's Upper Peninsula are called Copper Country because of the rich deposits of native copper there. In the nineteenth century, explorers and miners discovered evidence of prehistoric copper mining in this region. They used those "ancient diggings" as a guide to establishing their own, much larger mines, and in the process, destroyed the archaeological record left by the prehistoric miners. Using mining reports, newspaper accounts, personal letters, and other sources, this book reconstructs what these nineteenth-century discoverers found, how they interpreted the material remains of prehistoric activity, and what they did with the stone, wood, and copper tools they found at the prehistoric sites. "This volume represents an exhaustive compilation of the early written and published accounts of mines and mining in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. It will prove a valuable resource to current and future scholars. Through these early historic accounts of prospectors and miners, Halsey provides a vivid picture of what once could be seen." —John M. O'Shea, curator of Great Lakes Archaeology, University of Michigan Museum of Anthropological Archaeology
