Reviews
"Hall's handy guide to the ghost towns and mining camps of Eureka, Lander, and White Pine counties is superior to many others currently available. His exuberance and fascination with Nevada's glorious mining past is infectious." -- Phillip I. Earl , Nevada Historical Society, "What sets this fine effort apart from many of the rest is its regional specificity: it covers just three counties in eastcentral Nevada instead of an entire state or region. The result is a guide which covers more than 180 sites with directions to, and a brief historical profile of, each." -- Books of the Southwest, "Hall presents a vast about of detail in an accessible, informative, and entertaining manner. The selection and quantity of photographs will add much to the historical value and popularity of this book." -- Harold E. Klieforth , Desert Research Institute

- e***a (272)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseOrdered from USA and arrived to me in UK about 10 days later. Book appropriately packaged and mostly as described. Was missing the cd as listed but communication with the seller was friendly and polite if not a little confusing - partial refunds are only offered after you start the formal eBay return request process, they aren't capable of giving refunds after simple messaging to customer service. All in all though, great value and a positive transaction. Would interact again 👍
- e***- (123)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseUnfortunately I received a damaged book, the item and the package both were damaged and it was clearly evident its appearance that it happened during transit. The seller was very understanding and gave me a full refund for the damaged book, though it was no fault of their own. Other than the damage, the book was as described, the quality and condition aside from the damaged spot was like new. The cost of the book was reasonable. I would definitely purchase from the seller again.
