Gold! Who and in what times has not searched for it? At the beginning of the formation of the Soviet state, the question of deploying exploration and survey parties of gold-bearing deposits arose. On Stalin's instructions, specialists from other countries were involved, in particular, mining engineer John Littlepage, who worked in Alaska. A great storyteller, he spoke privately about his work in the Glavzoloto Trust, about the Soviet mines, about the organization of the gold mining industry controlled by the NKVD, about the situation of workers and women's labor in the mines, as well as about smelting operations in the South Urals, Kazakhstan, Bashkiria, Yakutia, Western Siberia, where he had to work ... Conversations with him, which were recorded by journalist Demarie Bess, formed the basis of this book.
