Hancock, H. Irving (Harrie Irving), 1868-1922

"Or, Seeking Fortune on the Turn of a Pick"

"
Reade and Harry Hazelton elected to go through life as civil engineers.
In "_The Young Engineers in Colorado_" has been fully set forth
the extraordinary work of these young men at railroad building
through the mountains wilds. In "_The Young Engineers in Arizona_"
we have followed Tom and Harry through even more startling adventures,
and have seen how they handled even greater problems in engineering.
Up to date the careers of these two bright young men had not been
humdrum ones. The surroundings in which their professional lives
had been passed had been such as to supply them with far more
startling adventures than either young man had ever looked for.
And now they were in Nevada, the state famous for its gold and silver
mines. Yet they had come ere solely in search of a few weeks of rest.
Rest? There was anything but rest immediately ahead of the young
engineers, but the curtain had not been lifted.
Immediately after the completion of their great work in Arizona,
Tom Reade and Harry Hazelton had gone back east to the good old
home town of Gridley.
