Steamboats in the timber by Ruby El Hult
In the heyday of its water commerce, Lake Coeur d'Alene in northern Idaho was the scene of more steamboating than any other lake, salt or fresh, west of the Great Lakes. The old steamers brought gold, silver, and lead from the mines; lumber from the forests; mail to lonely homesteaders; and romance down the shadowy St. Joe River, whose silken waters flow into the Coeur d'Alene. The old steamboats are gone now from the lake-but here is their story, exciting, nostalgic and complete. Across Lake Coeur d'Alene, in the early days, the big mining boom in the Coeur d'Alene Mountains was carried out, and the ore-hauling steamers came and went. Across the lake later went the timber seekers in their rush to grab the white pine riches of the St. Joe country; and a new fleet of steamers carried timber barons, homesteaders and lumberjacks up the twisting, cottonwood-shaded St. Joe. Here you will visit the bustling waterfront boom towns of Coeur d'Alene, Harrison, St. Maries, Ferrell, and St. Joe, just as they were in the glory days of steamboating, and as they are today. Romantic and factual history skill-fully merge as the old towns, the rivermen, and the boats glide by in easy, informed narrative. 209 pages, [7] leaves of plates : illustrations, map (on lining paper) ; 23 cm CIRC [ 0 ]
