Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This book tells the story of an American mining engineer and mine developer in northern Mexico from the 1890's to the 1920's, with the last entry in 1932. This is a true story, which makes it all the more remarkable. Morris Parker wins the first mine that he owns himself in a poker game in Chihuahua Mexico. That and many other colorful stories fill the book. He also knew Pancho Villa, and counted him a friend. Better than movies. I could not put this book down, but read it through over the course of a week. Highly recommended if you have any interest in the northern Mexico, Southwest U.S. region, the time, or in mining history.
