These true historical stories grew from our rambles through beautiful Carson Valley and the surrounding area. What was that fascinating old building all about? Who used to live in that house? One by one, we dug out the stories and shared what we'd found in our history newsletter and blog. Almost before we knew it, those stories morphed into a book. And another. And then another! Because people kept telling us how much they loved these stories. And all good stories need a place where they can be saved, cherished, and easily found again. This book is the third book in the series. We hope these tales help you enjoy the remaining traces of the early pioneers and "early days" here in beautiful Northern Nevada.
