A century ago, Treadwell, Alaska, was a featured stop on steamship cruises, a rich, up-to-date town that was the most prominent and proud in all Alaska. Its wealth, however, was founded on the remarkably productive gold mines on Douglas Island, and when those caved in and flooded in the early decades of the twentieth century, Treadwell sank into relative obscurity. Treadwell Gold presents first-person accounts from the sons and daughters of the miners, machinists, hoist operators, and superintendents who together dug and blasted the gold that made Treadwell rich. Alongside these stories are vintage photos that capture both the industrial vigor of the mines and the daily lives that made up Treadwell society. The book will fascinate anyone interested in Alaskan history or the romance of gold mining’s past.

Meanwhile, Abdullah and Rosalie’s consuming personal entanglements blind them to the crisis approaching their sixteen-year-old son, Faisal, whose deepening resentment toward their lifestyle has led to his involvement with a controversial sheikh.

Twitty devotes more attention to the "surface plant." See Meyerriecks' Drills and Mills (0-9714383-0-7) for fuller description of the underground works. Intended to acquaint the casual explorer with the basics--includes an appendix that identifies parts and their uses--but the history & depth of detail will charm the hardest hearted of hard-rock miners. Very extensive bibliography. Annotation copyrighted by Book News Inc., Portland, OR.
