One Shot for Gold: Developing a Modern Mine in Northern California - Mining and Society Series
Eleanor Herz Swent
In 1978, a geologist working for the Homestake Mining Company discovered gold in a remote corner of California's Napa County. This discovery led to the establishment of California's most productive gold mine in the twentieth century. This book traces the history of the McLaughlin Mine and how it transformed a community and an industry.
