Manage episode 425481676 series 3491738
On August 26, 1899, the name Volcanic City first appeared in the Cascade Record newspaper. It was said to be a city on a hill filled with wealth and abundance in the mineral richness of southern British Columbia.
By 1928, almost thirty years later, Volcanic City was a ghost town and its founder would vanish three years later.
In this episode we travel back through time to the early 20th century to the boomtowns of Boundary Country, BC.
Fueled by a global demand for copper, bustling cities sprouted up almost overnight, including Volcanic City which was dreamt up by the man at the heart of our story, Volcanic Brown.
