The story of the Las Animas Mining District in Colorado's San Juan Mountains began with the Colorado Gold Rush of 1860, but it was silver that kept the local mines operating for over one hundred years. A well-documented study that separates fact from folklore, Eric Twitty's Basins of Silver avoids the false information and exaggerations of many current commentaries on this famous mining district. Whether interested in Colorado mining history, in-depth, or exciting tales of man against nature - this book is an interesting and fun read.
