Pish-La-KI: The Lost Merrick and Mitchell Silver Mine - Paperback

The Pish-la-ki is one of the most well-known lost mines of the American Southwest and much has been written about it. However, most of this published material emphasizes the sensationalism of the story - the killing of the prospectors Merrick and Mitchell in Monument Valley - with specimens of the mine's silver ore in their packs. Unfortunately, this has often been at the expense of historical accuracy.

This book not only rectifies that, but brings together the entire history of the mine, its discovery, the various searches for it, and even its probable location.
