Jim Straight: Advanced Prospecting & Detecting for Hardrock Gold

[Terry Soloman]

I just got finished reading Jim Straights “Advanced Prospecting & Detecting for Hardrock Gold” – AGAIN, and it got me to thinking how kind Jim was to me. Back in 2009, he personally autographed all of his books for me! I have read them all multiple times. Thank you again Jim, these books are a prized possession that I now keep in the safe with my other gold nuggets!

I have every book he's ever written SIGNED BY THE AUTHOR with personal messages in every single one to me. I coveth them, And Jim, as a diplomat for miners for many years and like most of us---old old old--but NEVER count him out. Respect garned universally like sooo many long gone to that goldfield we never return from-Great reading fer sure-John

I have all of his publications too, I believe. His "Nugettshooter" and Chris Ralph's Fists full of Gold are ESSENTIALS in any contemporary gold prospector's library. TTC

Hoser.... Thanks but I gotta tell ya.... that picture is 45 years old! I'm just a shell of my former self. I respect all uniforms of all the services.... 'though I have a vested interest in putting the Marine Corps on top. My opinion. Thanks, buddy. TTC

Sold me... Just bought Jim's nugget shooter bible, they didn't have the finding gold in dry placers.. Dang. I love the desert!

Thanks for the heads up, looks like a great read. I guess I need to learn how to use my gold bug now.. Ughh lol.
