History of the Comstock Silver Lode and Mines
History of the Comstock Silver Lode and Mines, written by Dan DeQuille (pseudonym for William Wright), provides a concise overview of the Comstock Lode silver mines and the geographical features of Nevada. Published in the 19th century, this work highlights the significance of silver mining in shaping Nevada's economy and its impact on the westward expansion of the United States, particularly towards San Francisco. DeQuille, a prominent figure in mining literature and a member of the Sagebrush School of writers, also collaborated with Mark Twain on the larger work 'The Big Bonanza.'
