Back:
The Territorial Enterprise, Nevada's first newspaper
and its most famous, was founded in 1858 in Mor-
mon Station, now Genoa, and removed to Virginia
City in 1860. As the literary birthplace of Mark
Twain and the most notable of all frontier news-
papers in an age of gunfighting editors and violent
literary feuds, it was destined to become one of the
legendary properties of the Old West. The Enterprise
is still published from the building to which it
moved in 1876 by Lucius Beebe and Charles Clegg.
On the same premises is the Mark Twain Museum
of which Roy (Buffalo Bill) Shetler is proprietor.
