Drilling For Meteorites

TOBK2

Historic Data from Meteor Crater

Drilling For Meteorites is the untold story of Meteor Crater in 1920-21 when it was a lonely, isolated mining camp. Bitter cold in the winter, broiling heat in the summer, and roaring winds were just some of the troubles a hearty band of drillers faced in their attempt to find the buried star under the crater rim. Led by mining superintendent L. F. S. Holland they fought a battle with a natural wonder, Earth’s first impact crater to be investigated. 244 pgs.
