Produktinformationen zu „Legends of and Fortunes in Gold (ePub)“
Back in the 1860's, gold fever was not only in California but in the Northwest as well. There lived a different breed of men then, most trustworthy and honorable and some hostile and unsavory. These men faced banditry and frozen death and others found legendary wealth in gold. They were all lured to hidden, stolen, buried gold and gold that was to be had for the taking. In the vast Indian lands, which soon became territories, tent and log towns sprang up and then were abandoned with new discoveries of gold, while some grew and remain to this day. This book is a compilation of stories of men in their quest for gold in the Northwest.
Autoren-Porträt von Roger O. Walker
Roger Walker grew up along the Rogue River in Oregon and later worked with his father in the oil fields in southern California, where he learned to weld and build machinery. During the years working for Bennett Lumber Products, building machinery, he read and researched NorthWestern history. Once after winning the Idaho Writers League award for Writer of the year, a group of the Leagues' members paid Roger a visit. In the course of conversation Roger was asked what he did for a living. Expecting an answer that he was a stable writer or a syndicated writer, he replied that he was a welder. Consequently, conversations were cut short and the members left. Roger traveled places on horseback where few people would want to go. He was always wanting to know what lay beyond the next ridge.
