Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The History of Mount Mica of Maine, U. S. A: And Its Wonderful Deposits of Matchless Tourmalines
A mile or more to the eastward Of its court house, at the foot Of the slope Of a mountainous ridge which like a great mural wall hides the eastern horizon from view, appears a little hill seeming to be one of the buttresses Of the rocky range towering above it. This little hill, with its great gray piles Of broken rocks, which have been torn from its surface by the explorations Of more than half a century, disfiguring its natural beauty, is the famous Mount Mica, known to every mineralogist Of note in the scientific world, and dear to every heart that loves and respects the beautiful and the mysterious among nature's works.
