Shaniko: From Wool Capital to Ghost Town

Shaniko, located in the vast high desert of Oregon's interior, fairly leaped into being when the Columbia Southern Railroad terminated its line at Cross Hollows in 1900. For the next ten years, it was the hub of transportation and business center for wool, wheat, cattle and sheep. Laced with many folksy anecdotes and rare, historic photos, this is a fine human history of a now-famous "Ghost Town." Second edition. 5 1/2 x 8 1/2. 176 pages.
