Ghost towns of the Southwest - Arizona, Utah, New Mexico by Donald C. Miller
This book describes ghost towns and mining camps of Arizona, New Mexico and Utah. According to the book's introduction: "What's left (of these ghost towns and mining camps) tells much of the American Southwest - the good and the bad, the strong and the weak, the admirable and the contemptible. What follows are facts and fairy tales selected roughly a century after it all began, of places and people - bullwhackers, saloon keepers, prospectors, undertakers, prostitutes, gamblers, blacksmiths, and other who coursed through the dusty streets of parched mining camps. The ghosts of Arizona, New Mexico, and Utah are scattered over more than 320,000 square miles of deserts, plains, and mountains. It is hoped that in capturing something of what is still there of the better known of far-flung sites, it is possible to imagine what was there.
