Media Reviews
This is an immensely absorbing book about a ruggedly beautiful and wholly intriguing state. -American West * American West *
The appearance of History of Nevada is a major event in Nevada historiography. -Richard C. Lillard, Nevada Historical Society Quarterly -- Richard C. Lillard * Nevada Historical Society Quarterly *
Well-written, extensively documented and carefully indexed, [this work] is a valuable contribution for the study of a state too often mentioned only for gold and silver rushes, atomic bomb testing, or the opulent honky tonk of Las Vegas and its ilk. -Pacific Historian * Pacific Historian *
