I've spent years exploring the Pikes Peak region, discovering its rich history and learning the stories of its vibrant past. I'm fascinated by the tales of the gold seekers and mountain men who pioneered the American West during the 19th century, and I was particularly drawn to the story of Julia Holmes and the mysterious Independence Camp. My search for more information about Independence Camp led me to the Library of Congress. That's where I discovered the largely unknown journals of a prospector from Pawtucket, Rhode Island named Daniel Jenks. The fascinating account he wrote of his journey during the gold rush era captivated me, and I was driven to transcribe his journals into a readable format so others could enjoy it too. The Lost Gold Rush Journals of Daniel Jenks is the result of that effort, and I'm incredibly proud of the story it tells. I'm passionate about preserving the stories of our past. And I enjoy sharing the intriguing stories I uncover during my research with readers, like you. I invite you to join me on this historic journey of exploration and discovery. Go West!показать меньше
