Grover Hayden Ladd, a New River Packer by Gay Holland Berrien
describes Grover Ladd of New River, his family and friends, and the Ladd pack train. It includes histories and biographies relating to placer and hardrock mining, the local Forest Service, fish and game activities, weather events, the school system, and the Denny family of Siskiyou County. Ladd's family came to the headwaters of New River during the hardrock mining boom of the early 1880s, but over time acquired a store and post office, and eventually homesteaded a ranch downstream at the present location of Denny. The book includes many of the Ladd family photographs which are archived at the Jake Jackson Museum in Weaverville, and is a sequel to Dr. Valerie Budig-Markin's 2004 book on Ladd's mother, Nellie E. Ladd, Mining Camp Photographer of the Trinity Alps, 1859-1922. The author is a Big Bar resident who for many years lived at Denny and knew Ladd. 2014. 200 photographs, paperback, 8½ x 10½ inches landscape, 245 pages. NOTE: Copies and enlargements of the photographs shown in this book can be obtained through the Jake Jackson Museum
