Book excerpt: The early history of the towns of Bayview and Lakeview, Idaho, began long before those towns became prominent features on the map of Lake Pend Oreille. The book chronicles the early years of development at the southern portion of the lake, starting with the establishment of Pen d?Oreille City in 1866, when miners use it as the jumping off place on their way to the gold fields near Fort Steele, B.C. and Helena, Montana. Construction of the Mary Moody, began a period of some 60 or more years that steamers provided the major transportation on the lake, joining the tiny settlements that dotted the shoreline and keeping the sparce population of settlers joined by a common mail route. The mining town of Chloride sprung to life after Fred Weber and Simon Donnelly staked their first claims, but its existence was short-lived and the nearby town of Lakeview grew to prominence. The Weber family remained a dynamic influence in Lakeview from 1888 until well past the 1940?s, when this story ends. Lakeview developed into a remote workplace for miners and loggers, as well as a haven for university professors, Spokane families, and avid fishermen. The mining story of the area was only partially dependent on silver, as limestone production at both Lakeview and Bayview became a lucrative business. Join in the enthusiam of the Prairie Development Company entrepreneurs, who were some of the most notable "fathers" of Spokane, Washington, as they lay out the town of Bayview and promoted its growth as a destination resort. Bayview attracted controvery as to whether D.C. Corbin or F.A. Blackwell should bring in the railroad. Politicians argued about where the county line should be located which separated Kootenai and Bonner counties. The boom never really materialized as the developers probably envisioned, but hard-working, hard-playing residents did settle Bayview and survived through the years of Prohibition and the Depression, working at the mines, farming, and running local businesses.Step back into history with personal stories of the homestead families who settled the remote stretches of the lake. One chaper is devoted to four delightful accounts of these early inhabitants. Over 100 historic photos and maps add to the understanding of what life was like, and numerous family accounts tell about the people.
