   Description
Seeking fame and fortune, F. Augustus Heinze arrived in Butte, Montana, “the richest hill on earth” in 1889. He was 19 years old, worked in the copper mines for 19 years, and left as a multi-millionaire. With a brilliant talent for mining—and an shrewd understanding of mining law—he succeeded in becoming the youngest of the three "Copper Kings." This biography is the clearest portrayal of how bold, brash Heinze fought the powerful, championed the miners, and became one of America’s wealthiest men.
