White River Valley

(COMPLETED EXCEPT AS NOTED BELOW)

THEN and NOW -- 1898 to 1980

Lund, Nevada

It has been a desire of mine to publish this since the early nineties.

Current postings only include text based chapters from the book. It is my plan to post as many of the pictures included in the book as possible. I am currently in the process of scanning the images. This is a lengthy and time consuming process. Every attempt will be made to insure the highest quality images are available here with the ability to download the images to your own computer.

There are also many text spacers that were published under the title of "BETWEEN the LINES". (115 of these documents) I will do these when and if time permits as my main focus has to be the core chapters and corresponding images.

Your comments are welcome so feel free to let me know what you think. Please enjoy.
