Within an eleven-year span, first Cobalt, then the Porcupine, and finally Kirkland Lake established themselves as the pioneer large-scale mining camps in Ontario....The mines of Kirkland Lake sustained a town that by its peak in 1938 had a population of 26,000. This is the story of a gold town and of the people who made it thrive by delivering the precious yellow metal to an eager market. The perseverance, tenacity and endurance of its people who stayed and built a home in the northeastern Ontario bush is a lesson in survival; and this gold town survivor celebrates its centenary of gold discovery in 2011" xvi,193p. illus.
