The Legend of Storey County — Bodie Thoene; Brock Thoene

One-hundred-year-old Jim Canfield was the living legend of Storey County. This first installment of his memoirs transports readers back to the 1860s, when the horrors of the Civil War and the fabulous bonanza silver mines of the Comstock Lode were on a collision course. Ruthless secessionists were anxious to fill the coffers of the Confederacy--at any cost.
