"The great copper gold and silver mining boom that struck the Boundary District of southern British Columbia and northern Washington State brought a rush to this mountainous region that few travellers of today would imagine. Mines and huge smelters dominated the lives of thousands of people in newly built cities that became famous for their mining wealth. The Canadian Pacific and Great Northern railways are central to the story and are chronicled through the last years of steam and the introduction of diesels to the end of most rail services in the region. It is a rich and dramatic story of a flamboyant era." - dust jacket. 224 glossy pages.
