This critical primary history of the late nineteenth-century Western silver boom serves as a premium, "double association" collector's specimen, uniquely featuring a warm, authentic ink presentation inscription and flat signature penned by the author at 80 years of age directly to his personal niece on the front free endpaper. Offered in solid Good (G) antiquarian condition, the publisher's original orange cloth boards with dark red titles remain tight, square, and structurally secure, displaying only standard uniform exterior shelf wear which includes light soiling around the extremities, minor corner rubbing, and gentle softening to the spine extremities. Internally, there are mapped end papers and the text block remains remarkably firm and tight throughout, with the 222 clean, illustrated pages entirely free from modern library stamps, textbook highlighting, or child scribbles, presenting only standard uniform light age-toning to the paper margins.
