[Baker, OR: Brooks Hawley, Baker City Herald, 1977]. 4to. 46, [2] pp. Photo-illustrated throughout. Green printed softcovers (rippling to textblock & covers), signed by Hawley on verso of front cover, and ownership markings as well dated 1977. Facsimile edition of this exceedingly scarce gold mining and land promotion piece issued in 1898 against the backdrop of the gold strikes and mines of Baker City, Granite, Grants Pass, and Sumpter, Oregon. The 1898 original illustrated and detailed the mines and mine owners of the Columbia Mine, Bonanza Mine, California Mine of Sumpter, as well as the tremendous growth in lumber mills, logging, and agricultural commercial opportunities in Eastern Oregon at the end of the 19th century. Hawley (1902-1991) was an active geologist, mining engineer, and historian of the Eastern Oregon gold rush who wrote the Account of Gold Dredging in the Sumpter Valley in Eastern Oregon.
