In A Peep at Washoe, Browne make a trip to Washoe! Exploring the Silver Boom of the early 1860's, his inimitable style brings you to the footsore journey over the Sierras to the midst of the boom at it's height and his grueling trip back to San Francisco. Revisiting three years later, the great changes, the contrast of the pioneer miner's life to the rapidly growing town life are accentuated. Well told background piece. These are taken from the serializations in 1860/61 and 1865. Illustrated.
