Abandoned Randsburg: The Mojave Desert's Liveliest Ghost Town

Cynthia Ackley Nunn

4.9/5 (28673 ratings)

Description:I first debuted this book in 2012, after two years of intensive research. This is the revised and expanded version with updated content. This book, like the original 2012 version, includes my signature chapter with the story of French Marguerite Roberts and how I solved the 105 year old mystery of her real identity, linking her to the Brickett family of San Bernardino. Don't let the new title (chosen by my publisher) fool you. Randsburg is far from abandoned! This old mining town has a lot of tales to tell, some of which you will find in the pages of this book. With a population of nearly 3000 in it's hey day, Randsburg saw it's share of excitement, murder, hi-jinks and disasters, often gaining mention in the larger newspapers. See where Billy Bob Thornton made his supporting speaking role debut in the movie "Chopper Chicks in Zombietown." Read the scandalous headlines about Fay LeRoy, who newspapers of the time refered to as the woman vampire seeking new virgin blood! You'll read about some of the other "red light" ladies who made their living in this rugged desert town. Explore the stories of some of those buried in the Rand District cemetery, who, until now, have been forgotten to history. Learn all the details behind the murder of Emily Davidson, shot dead on Butte Avenue in broad daylight by her ex-husband, making her the first woman to be buried in the new Rand District Cemetery. You will also learn about some of Randsburg's current residents and shop keepers, and how they manage to keep the history of Randsburg alive for future generations. Full of photographs, both color and black & white. I was thrilled to be the first book author to dedicate not just a quick mention, but a full chapter, as an introduction to the new business called Mad Ink Designs. I hope you enjoy this visual journey as much as I enjoyed writing it.Note: Like many other authors and those in the arts/entertainment industry, over the past four years I have been hit by "doxxers," those who have not read my books but left negative reviews out of nastiness and a personal vendetta. Online book sellers have done their best to deal with this issue but have not been able to remove "star ratings" left by "doxxers."
