Where Copper Was King: A Tale Of The Early Mining Days On Lake Superior is a historical fiction book written by James North Wright. The book is set in the early mining days on Lake Superior, where copper was the most valuable resource. The story follows the life of a young man named John, who leaves his home in New York to seek his fortune in the copper mines of Lake Superior. As John arrives in the mining town, he encounters a range of characters, including miners, prospectors, and businessmen. He quickly learns that life in the mines is tough and dangerous, and that the competition for copper is fierce. Despite the challenges, John is determined to succeed and make a name for himself in the mining industry. Throughout the book, the author describes in detail the mining techniques, tools, and equipment used during the early mining days on Lake Superior. He also provides insights into the social and economic conditions of the time, including the struggles of the miners and their families. Where Copper Was King: A Tale Of The Early Mining Days On Lake Superior is a fascinating and informative read for anyone interested in the history of mining and the development of the American West. The book offers a unique perspective on the challenges and opportunities faced by early miners, and the impact that the mining industry had on the region.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
