Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rocks in the Road to Fortune: Or the Unsound Side of Mining It may be assumed that, to be successful in the practical side of mining, the operator must be of personal experience in many districts. There are few men better equipped to deal justly with the question of commercial mining than the author of "Rocks in the Road to Fortune." That the reader may know that his experience has not been, and his knowledge is not, limited, we have compiled the salient points of his mining and public career covering nearly every district of importance in the United States and Mexico. The Gotham Press, having for many years published his works, is competent to write such a biography. Henry B. Clifford was born in Louisville, Ky., April 28, 1859. He is the nephew of the late Nathan Clifford, formerly Judge of the United States Supreme Court, and, in 1848, Minister to Mexico. He has inherited the democratic tendencies of his famous uncle. For many years Mr. Clifford has been a public advocate of mining, and addressed over 250,000 people upon the subject.

Book Synopsis Mining Tycoons in the Age of Empire, 1870-1945 by : Raymond E. Dumett
Download or read book Mining Tycoons in the Age of Empire, 1870-1945 written by Raymond E. Dumett. This book was released on 2009. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The years of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, aptly described by Mark Twain as the 'Gilded Age' witnessed an unprecedented level of technological change, material excess, untrammeled pursuit of profit and imperial expansion. Within this dynamic and often ruthless environment many colorful characters strode across the world stage, among them the great mining tycoons, who constituted one of the major spearheads of global capitalistic expansion and colonial exploitation. This volume, which carries the epic story to the mid-twentieth century, provides a truly international perspective on the role of mining entrepreneurs, investors and engineers in shaping the economic and political map of the globe, in testing management techniques and in setting a vogue for extravagant displays of wealth among the world's rich.
