The Grand Encampment Settling the High Country by Candy Moulton

Description

Award-winning author and historian Candy Moulton has compiled a definitive settlement history of Wyoming’s Grand Encampment valley.  Here is the story of the copper mining era when rich minerals were found daily and men made or lost fortunes overnight.  Read of those who made money and left with it, those who stayed too long, and those who had the fortitude to survive long enough to watch their grandchildren grow up in the community.  Moulton researched over 20 years and gathered more than 60 historic photographs, many never-before-published panoramic camera photos taken by early journalist Earle Clemens.
