Product Description
William Edmundson examines the spectacular life story of ''Colonel'' John Thomas North, also known as ''The Nitrate King,'' a mechanic in Leeds who became one of the best-known and richest men of his time. Forgotten in Britain and vilified in Chile and Peru, this is the first biography of a controversial but compelling figure.
