Adele Reed and her husband, Bill, lived in Mammoth from 1927 to 1948, then moved to Bishop, California. Over the years, she amassed an astonishing collection of photographs, souvenirs, letters, stories, memories, old bottles, and hundreds of other items of historic interest. Reed was the author of six other books on local history and collectibles, as well as many articles for the Bishop newsletter.
This is first-hand account of Old Mammoth -- the small village that preceded today's popular High sierra resort in eastern California, Mammoth Lakes -- and the beginnings of New Mammoth and skiing on Mammoth Mountain. It is a collection, also, of stories and memories from earlier times and from the boom and bust days of the Mammoth gold mines.
