Just as the lure of free land attracted homesteaders and livestock raisers in search of new opportunities, so did the possibility of finding wealth in gold and silver throughout the region. Based on exhaustive research and a wealth of sourcesfederal census and mining records, newspapers, mining periodicals, county land records, maps, and federal government reportsOregon Gold offers a comprehensive study of mining in Oregon between 1862 and 1910. From carefully examining the eastern portion of the state to exploring the economic expansion and political development of Portland, William Willingham highlights what is unique about the Oregon gold mining experience and places Oregons precious metal mining in the context of mining throughout the American West. Willingham shows how mining was an important aspect of the states history, far greater than has been traditionally understood.
