About SSB

While the genesis of this blog is my keen interest in The Comstock Lode and its history to the present, this blog will also explore more than The Comstock Lode-proper.

Topics will also include gleanings from the past and present that I find interesting in Carson, Eagle, Lyon & Washoe counties — and occasionally beyond.

The blog's description is from the book titled "The Comstock Club" by C.C. Goodwin, who was the Salt Lake Daily Tribune's editor when he wrote the book, which was published in 1891. It can be found on Project Gutenberg®, which published the public-domain book (EBook #36123) on its website in 2011.
