From the Images of America series comes this pictoral effort to mark the 50th anniversary of the incorporation of the City of Henderson, Nevada. What makes the anniversary so interesting is that the city was never meant to remain a populated area let alone grow to the second largest city in Nevada. From the early 1900s there haqd been some mining and some ranching but the city was founded on the basis of providing housing for workers of two of the largest federal projects in the west: Boulder (Hoover) Dam and Basic Magnesium Inc. a wartime industry. This book documents the growth of the city with photos and some text. 127 pages, paperbound, March 2003,
