Cerro Gordo

Sinopsis del Libro

Libro Cerro Gordo

High in the Inyo Mountains, between Owens Valley and Death Valley National Park, lies the ghost town of Cerro Gordo. Discovered in 1865, this silver town boomed to a population of 3,000 people in the hands of savvy entrepreneurs during the 1870s. As the silver played out and the town faded, a few hung on to the dream. By the early 1900s, Louis D. Gordon wandered up the Yellow Grade Road where freight wagons once traversed with silver and supplies and took a closer look at the zinc ore that had been tossed aside by early miners. The Fat Hill lived again, primarily as a small company town. By the last quarter of the 20th century, Jody Stewart and Mike Patterson found themselves owners of the rough and tumble camp that helped Los Angeles turn into a thriving metropolis because of silver and commercial trade. Cerro Gordo found new life, second to Bodie, as California's best-preserved ghost town.

Alfonso XII

Libro Alfonso XII

Este libro no es una biografía más del "Rey romántico", sino un estudio en profundidad de la época -crucial en nuestra historia contemporánea- que se abre con los prolegómenos de la revolución de 1868 y se cierra con los inicios de la regencia de Doña María Cristina de Austria, una época contemplada en esta obra tanto en su dimensión política, como en sus aspectos sociales y culturales, y que culmina en la figura y el reinado del "Pacificador". Durante el reinado de Alfonso XII las viejas tensiones y los pronunciamientos del periodo isabelino quedaron desplazados por la...
