Synopsis
The California Gold Rush! Except for the Civil War, no other event in nineteenth-century America caused such an upheaval. The discovery of gold in John Sutter's mill race, in that year of glory 1848, opened the West. It created the State of California. It inspired countless dreams of riches -- occasionally even satisfied them. And it sent thousands of otherwise sensible and sober men and women journeying desperately across deserts and trackless plains, through tropical swamps and into gales at sea -- "off to Californy." Gold Dust tells for the first time, in all its sweep, color, and variety, the authentic story of the forty-niners. It is an incredible tale, vividly alive with drama and anecdote and some of the most extraordinary characters ever to have played a role in American history. From the moment that the truculent carpenter James Marshall spots the first nugget below Sutter's half-finished mill (and almost immediately regrets it), we are caught up in the adventures and conflicts, ordeals, delusions, and triumphs that the gold-hunters experienced. Here is Sutter himself, dimly aware that his infant empire in the Sacramento Valley is doomed to be trampled into oblivion...the unfortunate John Woodhouse Audubon, son of the naturalist, whose overland company suffers the loss of its leader, the theft of half its funds, and a cholera epidemic -- before even setting foot on the trail...the inept pioneer Bill Johnston, racing west from Pittsburgh in fear that the gold would be all gone, only to turn round and race back again when he finds out what California is really like...long suffering trail boss J. Goldsborough Bruff, abandoned by his fellow Argonauts to his arthritis and the terrors of a Sierra winter. We watch, appalled, as a hapless (and mapless) party of Midwesterners rumbles inexorably into the desolate heart of Death Valley...as a frustrated and furious handful of shipless voyagers sets out for San Francisco from Panama, a distance of 3,600 miles, by canoe (a few actually made it!)...as hopeful subscribers vainly wait for one Rufus Porter to complete his "aerial locomotive" (three days from New York to California for $50, "wines included")...

Only four stars for the item because of the pages but the seller did mention that. Also the price was great and fair. This seller is honest, fast with shipping, and care for the item being sold and ship. I additionally like the little thank you sticker that was put on the nicely wrap package. I would definitely buy from this seller again if they have something I need. Highly recommend this seller to others.Exploring Zoology : A Laboratory Guide by David G.

- b***5 (15)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoVery well packaged. They are all they were purported to be! Brand new, still in plastic wrap. For me personally, yellow is the most important color in my world, and the manufacturer chose to print the yellow portion of the borders in a shade that appears to me as closer to tan or even gold rather than yellow. After I get the walls painted yellow I will decide whether I will actually use the wallpaper border or not. No reflection on the seller! Seller was great! Just describing my reaction
