Hidden History of Helena, Montana (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

Distinguished by statesmen and magnates, Helena�s history is colored with many other compelling characters and episodes nearly lost to time. Before achieving eminence in Deadwood, She riff Seth Bullock oversaw Montana Territory�s first two legal hangings. The Seven Mile House was an oasis of vice for the parched, weary travelers entering the valley on the Benton Road, despite a tumultuous succession of ownership. The heritage of the Sieban Ranch and the saga of �King Kong� Clayton, �the Joe Louis of the Mat,� faded from public memory. From unraveling the myths of Chinatown to detailing the lives of red-light businesswomen and the Canyon Ferry flying saucer hoax, revered local historians Ellen Baumler and Jon Axline team up to preserve a compendium of Helena�s yesteryear.
