This extraordinarily comprehensive, well-documented, biographical dictionary of some 1,500 photographers (and workers engaged in photographically related pursuits) active in western North America before 1865 is enriched by some 250 illustrations. Far from being simply a reference tool, the book provides a rich trove of fascinating narratives that cover both the professional and personal lives of a colorful cast of characters.

"This first thorough survey of Utah's mining history provides overviews of the geology, economic history, and folklore of mining in the state; recounts the development of a selection of historically significant minerals, such as coal, salines, and uranium; and includes region-by-region histories of Utah's mining booms and busts. The essays are written by notable experts in the field, among them historians Thomas G. Alexander, Martha Sonntag Bradley-Evans, James E. Fell Jr., Laurence P. James, Brigham D. Madsen, Allen Kent Powell, W. Paul Reeve, and Raye C. Ringholz and geologists J. Wallace Gwynn and William T. Parry."--BOOK JACKET.
