Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. In this book, the author presents an enthusiastic account of Boise, Idaho, and the region surrounding it. Nestled against foothills and nourished by the waters of the Boise River, Boise has grown from a humble settlement to a thriving metropolis. The rich volcanic ash of the surrounding soil supports a vast agricultural industry that is transforming the high desert into lush, productive farmlands. The author provides a vivid depiction of the burgeoning fruit orchards, bountiful vineyards, and prosperous livestock operations that define this agricultural haven. The book also highlights the mining history of Boise and the surrounding area. A treasure trove of minerals, including gold, silver, lead, and copper, has been extracted from the region's depths, contributing to Boise's economic growth and prosperity. However, the author emphasizes that Boise is more than just a mining town. It is a bustling hub of commerce, industry, and culture, with a vibrant community that enjoys a high quality of life. The author concludes by reflecting on Boise's remarkable transformation from a frontier outpost to a thriving city. Through its abundant natural resources, strategic location, and the hard work of its people, Boise has emerged as a beacon of progress and opportunity in the heart of the American West.
