Reminiscences of Walter D. Scott, Desert Entrepreneur of the American West
Scott provides rare, first-hand information on many desert topics including growing up on the desert in the 1920s, living on the desert, and, most significantly, making a living on the desert. He engaged in many different desert occupations. He ran cattle, horses, sheep, and goats. He mined gold, copper, manganese, uranium, and decorative rock. He bought the right to collect 'dead and downed' desert ironwood and used it in the manufacture of charcoal. On his irrigated form he grew crops from alfalfa to peaches. He was also a leading citizen, serving on committees and boards, and was the first to propose the creation of a college in the Palo Verde Valley. With illustrations.
