Description: Mines of the Mojave is the seventh book of the La Siesta Press Series on the Mines of California. It covers the numerous mining districts running across the upper Mojave Desert from Tropico, west of the town of Mojave, to Mountain Pass, a little west of the Nevada border. Except for those of Calico and Randsburg, most of these mines are little known, yet provide interesting jaunts for the visitor who does not wish to drive too far from the metropolitan centers. Many others may be reached by a short side trip from the Los Angeles-Las Vegas highway. These include in addition to the old gold and silver mines, the now very important non-metallics such as borax, talc, soda-ash and the TV-flours o the Mountain Pass region.
