Publishers Description: This is the story of Mount Morgan, the greatest single mountain of gold ever discovered. It is the story of the town and the company of the same name and of the working men and women who turned it into a familiar name on the Stock Exchanges of the world in the early 1900s.

It is also the story of a small group of men whose influence reached as far as the great oilfields of Persia and who were indirectly instrumental in the victory of the Allies in World War One. Mount Morgan celebrated its centenary in 1982. Behind it lies a complex history of dedication, intrigue, hardships and fortunes won and lost.
