Mining historian Kerby Jackson introduces us to a classic mining work in this important re-issue of "The Resources of Southern Oregon". Unavailable since 1889, this publication offers rare insights into the early history of agriculture and mining in Southern Oregon. Included are details on not only late 19th century farming, but also hard to find information on gold, silver, copper and other mines that operated in Southern Oregon in the late 1880's. 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.
