''The Story of the Mine: As Illustrated by the Great Comstock Lode of Nevada'' is a book written by Charles Howard Shinn and first published in 1896. The book provides a comprehensive account of the mining industry and its history, with a particular focus on the Great Comstock Lode of Nevada. Shinn explores the various aspects of mining, including the geology of the earth, the discovery and development of mines, the techniques and equipment used in mining, and the economic and social impact of mining on local communities. The book also delves into the lives of the miners themselves, detailing their working conditions, living conditions, and struggles. The Great Comstock Lode of Nevada, one of the largest and most productive silver mines in history, serves as a prime example of the mining industry and its impact on society. Shinn’s book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of mining and its impact on the world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
