Mining historian Kerby Jackson introduces us to a classic mining work in this important re-issue of "Gold Dredging in California". Unavailable since 1905, this publication was originally compiled by the California Bureau of Mines. A century and more ago, giant dredging machines dug in California's rivers and creeks in search of illusive golden riches. First appearing in the 1850's, gold dredges finally reached their peak of development in Siberia and New Zealand before becoming popular again in the United States. This book offers a unique historical perspective on the gold dredges that once operated in California. This book on California mining history is lavishly illustrated with dozens of rare historic photos gold dredges that once operated in California, as well as hard to locate plans on how these dredges were designed. Note: This edition is a perfect facsimile of the original edition and is not set in a modern typeface. As such, some type characters and images might suffer from slight imperfections or minor shadows in the page background.
