5.0 out of 5 stars
superior mining book for kids,
By "booieb" (sacramento, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Life of a Miner (Life in the Old West) (Paperback)
I loved this book! The way it explains the difference between lode mining and placer mining alone was excellent. The drawing and explainations of the stamp mill and how the gold is separated from the rock is my favorite part. There is also background on mining towns, miner lives, and areas mined. Drawings and explainations of how cradles, long toms, panning and sluice boxes work. This book is the cornerstone of my Gold Rush Unit. I have purchased 35, so my entire class can read them together. Wonderful and just right for 4th grade.
