Lost Butte, Montana, a book by Richard I. Gibson, is in stores and museum gift shops around Butte. Or order from the publisher. It's also in E-book formats at all the usual places. And read an interview with Gibson, here, and on KXLF here. The Facebook page has many historic photos of Butte, and the Butte-Anaconda NHLD project showcases many historic buildings. Location-oriented posts can be found on HistoryPin. On Mondays beginning in January 2016, look for Gibson's "Mining City History" column in the Montana Standard. Many of these blog posts have been converted to podcast episodes, available at KBMF.

Corner by Corner: Quartz and Crystal


By Richard I. Gibson

Today's post is the first in a series of podcasts exploring Butte corner by corner. Ideally, you'd be standing at the corner as you listen to the audio, but I hope armchair travelers enjoy it as well. Some pages that may be useful in connection with the podcast are linked below:

The Silver King Lode
Architect Charles Prentice
301 N. Crystal
Frank Paneek Panisko
