The dust jacket is in a plastic sleeve. Gene M. Gressley joined the University of Wyoming in 1956 as University Archivist. As University Archivist, Gressley beg…an to collect material that documented the range cattle and petroleum industries in the Rocky Mountain West, as well as western economic development. In 1963 Gressley's program was promoted to the Division of Rare Books and Special Collections, and by 1976 the Division was transformed to the American Heritage Center. He served as director of the American Heritage Center until 1988 and was instrumental in developing the institution. Aside from his career as an archivist and administrator, Gressley was a historian and was the author of several books including: the "Twentieth-Century American West: a Potpourri"; "Voltaire and the Cowboy: the Letters of Thurman Arnold"; "Bankers and Cattleman"; and "West by East: the American West in the Gilded Age". He edited the Journal of Robert Livermore, published under the title of Bostonians and Bullion. He served on the editorial boards of the Western History Quarterly, Great Plains Quarterly, and Pacific Historical Review. He was the twenty-fourth president of the Western History Association. Gene Gressley earned a bachelor degree from Manchester College in 1952, a Master of Arts degree from Indiana University in 1956, and a doctorate from the University of Oregon in 1964. Robert Livermore (1876-1959) was born in Boston, Mass. He attended the Boston Public Latin School and in 1893 enrolled in the Massachusetts Nautical Training School, serving on the training ship Enterprise for several months. He then returned to his studies at Hopkinson's private school in Boston to prepare for Harvard. Livermore graduated from Harvard with an A.B. in 1900 and pursued a course in engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, graduating with an S.B. in 1903. Livermore began a career in mining engineering with his first position as assistant engineer, Camp Bird Mine, Ouray, Colorado. For the next 30 years, Livermore was involved in mine work in the San Miguel and San Juan Valleys in Colorado, including work at the Smuggler Union Mine in Telluride, where his brother-in-law Bulkeley Wells became manager in 1904. Livermore was appointed deputy sheriff in the great labor strike by the Western Federation of Miners in Telluride at that time. In 1905, he went to Goldfield, Nevada, in search of gold, and in 1906 returned to Colorado. In 1911, Livermore was hired as manager of the Kerr Lake Mine, Cobalt, Ontario. During World War I, he served as a captain in the U.S. Engineers at Camp Lee and Camp Humphreys, Virginia. He also tried his hand in the shipping and export business and, in 1919, organized a steamship company, Livermore, Dearborn & Company. Throughout these years, he also worked as a consultant for the Goodrich Lockhart Company, traveling throughout the western United States and Mexico in search of promising mine locations. In 1923, Livermore became the managing director of the Smuggler Union Mine, and in 1928 he organized his own company, North American Mines, Inc. He also served as vice president of the Hecla Copper and Mining Company, of which his father had been part-owner and vice president.
