Alexis’s Reviews > Rock Springs: Growing up in a Wyoming Coal Town, 1915-1938 > Status Update

I really like a part in Chapter 9 when he talks about one of his fondest memories from school was listening to his teacher read different stories to him. Some of my strongest childhood memories also have a book related to them.

The story about the mayor and the different ways the mines came into existence is a really fascinating history to Rock Springs. Mostly everything I've learned is a new perspective to Rock Springs. I especially love the pictures that are inserted.

Chapter four left my head reeling with all the numbers and little unique facts about the begging of Blairtown and Rock Springs. I just kept thinking about all the research involved in almost three pages. WOW.
