5.0 out of 5 stars Informative and well reseached, October 25, 1999

By A Customer

I have visited Eureka several times since finding out my great grandfather worked in the mines there. Romancing Nevada's Past directed me right to the mining site my great grandfather worked and the book had a picture of the house my grandfather was born in. The information is well written and accurate. I often find myself reading it just for the fun of learning more about Eureka and the surrounding areas.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent ghost town book with great photographs, September 3, 1998

By A Customer

This is an extremely complete history of the local history which provides detailed directions which are easy to follow. Covers many more sites than any other book on the subject I have seen. Excellent contrast of vintage and modern photos.

3.0 out of 5 stars Informative but lacking, July 24, 2008

By	GroundStar (Battle Mountain, NV, USA) - See all my reviews

This book is very informative in it's text and few pictures. What it really lacked is readable maps, GPS coordinates or really anything other then the very vague directions to any given site. Some instructions are go to site 1 then take this route to site 2 then turn right to site 3. Which is ok assuming they give you good directions to site #1. When they say turn left on dirt road, you have no idea what dirt road they are talking about, because in mining areas there could be 10 dirt roads in a span of 300 feet.
