West Virginia: Its Farms and Forests, Mines and Oil-Wells
Dodge, J. R. / Bailey, Kenneth R.
Celebrates the state of West Virginia. Originally published in 1865 as a series of studies on mineral resources, observations on agriculture, and interviews with businessmen, West Virginia details the industrial statistics, terrain, and population of a state during its infancy. This new edition reminds us of the state's alluring beginning and rich, yet often exploited development.
