More about the book
Set against the backdrop of Eldorado Canyon, the narrative explores the rich history of the area, once inhabited by ancient Puebloan, Paiute, and Mojave Indians. The arrival of Spaniards in 1775 marked the beginning of a tumultuous mining saga, culminating in the discovery of the Salvage Vein in 1861. The Techatticup Mine, linked to Senator George Hearst, became notorious for its lawlessness, attracting Civil War deserters and leading to violent confrontations. This compelling tale reveals a tumultuous period filled with greed, survival, and the harsh realities of frontier life.
