Summary: Prospector's View on "The Ancient River of Gold"
Comment: This is a wonderful book about a fascinating subject that is often overlooked by the ordinary person looking for gold, but not by any serious prospector. Too often mining books are about the basics on how to retrieve gold and the actual geology left out; this book is a complete reversal. However, it does not read like a college textbook on geology, but rather like a geologic storybook that will blow your mind. My impression is that Raymond Wallace, like Mulder from the X-Files, is trying to describe this far-out geologic theory asking you to bear with him for awhile while you try to visualize it in your mind, holding back disbelief, yet realizing all things are possible.
He covers mountain ranges and river canyons by name in great detail and if you are not familiar with the area you are truly interested in, you will be completely lost. My only complaint are the river-maps are not clear enough for the place-names discussed in detail in the paragraphs, and correlating this incredible information to a topo map would be a monumental task
for even the most dedicated soul. However, after you are done reading what type of gold the old-timers found in the ancient river gravels that were left untouched since the dawn of time, you will be so envious it will take your breath away.

I promise, you will be in awe at the power of the mighty earth and never look at a stretch of gravel the same way ever again.
