A long-abandoned silver mine for sale sounded like an adventure too great to passup, but it turned into much more-a calling, a community of millions, and hard-earned lessons about chasing impractical dreams."Inspiring and meditative-the story of man vs nature and man vs himself."-Ryan Holiday,#1 New York Times bestselling author of The Obstacle is the WayThe siren song of Cerro Gordo, a desolate ghost town perched high above Death Valley,has seduced thousands since the 1800s, but few fell harder for it than Brent Underwood,who moved there in March of 2020, only to be immediately snowed in and trapped forweeks.It had once been the largest silver mine in California. Over $500 million worth of ore waspulled from the miles of tunnels below the town. Butch Cassidy, Mark Twain, and otherinfamous characters of the American West were rumored to have stayed there.Newspapers reported a murder a week. But that was over 150 years ago.Underwood bet his life savings-and his life-on this majestic, hardscrabble town thathad broken its fair share of ambitious men and women. What followed were fires, floods,earthquakes, and perhaps strangest, fame. Ghost Town Living tells the story of a managainst the elements, a forgotten historic place against the modern world, and a dreamagainst all odds-one that has captured millions of followers around the world.He came looking for a challenge different from the traditional 9-5 job but discoveredsomething much more fulfilling-an undertaking that would call on all of himself andpush him beyond what he knew he was capable of. In fact, to bring this abandoned townback to life, Brent had to learn a wealth of new self-sufficiency and problem-solvingskills from many generous mentors.Ghost Town Living is a thrilling read, but its also a call to action-to question our too-practical lives and instead seek adventure, build something original, redefine work, andembrace the unknown. It shows what it means to dedicate your life to something, to takea mighty swing at a crazy idea and, like the cardsharps who once haunted Cerro Gordo,go all in.
