This unusual novel is an absorbing tale of the era of Gold in the West - when prospectors found precious metals and their discoveries drew other men westward in the hope of riches and adventure. In episodic form, the author tells the story of a gold mine, the Molly Pitcher, of the men who worked her, and of the women who sustained them. Some of Young's sketches are etched in acid, some are as warmly human as remembered kisses, and each and every one has the fidelity to the life they revolve around - the life of the mine - of the sound of hammer hitting drilling steel.
