Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tombstone in History, Romance and Wealth Edward Schieffelin was born in Western Pennsylvania in 1848, but when he was only ten years old his father trekked westward into Oregon. With pioneer stamina as an inheritance, young Schieffelin manifested a desire to prospect as a mere boy, the banks of the Rouge river be ing his first field. At the age of twenty-two he had worked his way well southward and was earning a livelihood on the great Comstock lode. With more space at command, it would be interesting to follow the virile, sun-tanned young Schie elin in his tortuous windings through the sagebrush ats of Nevada and rugged crags of Northern Arizona. Equipped with his dearly-bought and well learned knowledge of the craft of miner and prospector. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
