MINES, MINERALS & MUSTANGS
A Romantic Look at Nevada's Abandoned Past
John and Jeannette Kerr
|
| Nevadas first gamblers came with picks and shovels. They staked claims, built houses, mined and used horses as pack animals. But when Lady Luck ran out, all was abandoned. Mines, Minerals & Mustangs shares geologist/miner/husband John Kerrs and photographer/wife Jeanette Kerrs ongoing love affair with Nevadas abandoned past. Personal anecdotes and breathtaking photographs reveal the authors infatuation with the old mines, lapsed claims, ghost towns and the wild mustang (mestengo) horses of Nevadas grubstake years. |
