Book excerpt: In Treasure State Tycoon, John C. Russell regales us with an intimate look at the life of Montana entrepreneur Nelson G. Story. This richly detailed biography is set against the tumultuous backdrop of the nineteenth-century West. Beautiful maps and photographs bring Story's journey from humble prospector to Bozeman tycoon to life. Story's dazzling ability to sniff out opportunity-from the gold fields of Montana to the real estate boom in southern California-made him a fortune. Russell's unflinching look at Story's darker side in both his personal life and business dealings serves as a reminder that ambition and cruelty often go hand in hand. Book jacket.
