Leads Galore for my Arizona Friends (1874 AZ Town & Mine Guide)
I came across this book while looking thru Google Books for a research project. Google has been taking thousands of old books whose copyrights have expired and posts them in their entirety on the net. I have been using Google to research old schools, racetracks, fairgrounds and such in my area. This one was too good not to pass along.
This book was printed in 1874 and should provide many good leads and interesting reading. It is availible free at the link below to view or as a 25MB .pdf download. If one has a slow connection, individual pages can be viewed one at a time. For those with faster connections, the whole thing can be downloaded (legally) and viewed at your leisure.
The Handbook to Arizona: Its Resources, History, Towns, Mines, Ruins and Scenery - Amply Illustrated - With a New Map of the Territory - 431pp. (1874)
