Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rezension 1: Felix Wierzbicki has been almost forgotten though he played an important part in the Westward Expansion of the United States. He fled from Poland and the Russian domination after being imprisioned as a young student. He was an aristocrat and well educated so on arriving in the U.S. he supported himself by teaching, then studied medicine. In California his gold mining didn't pay off so he practiced medicine in San Francisco and also wrote the first book published in English published west of the Rocky Mountains. It told the ungilded truth about life in California unlike others which painted unrealistic pictures of the Gold Rush.

Download or read book A Guide to the Gold Rush Country of California written by Frank Lorey and published by America Through Time. This book was released on 2017-11-23 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The discovery of gold on the magical date of January 24, 1848, when James Marshall discovered gold at Sutter's Mill near Coloma, started a rush that was unprecedented in all of the world's history. It started a boom period to the state that lasted at least 15 years. By 1849, gold production reached $10 million, and it would not be until 1929 that production would drop below that value. 1852 was the all-time peak year, with $82 million in gold production from a total of almost four million ounces mined. Between 1850 and 1864, over one million ounces were mined every year. In this book Frank Lorey covers the historic towns and mining locations in the eleven counties which produced the vast majority of California's golden wealth. Most are situated along and nearby to Highway 49, known as California's "Golden Highway." Today many are nothing more than historic locations, having become ghost towns long ago, but some are still quite lively locations. The book was developed from a popular series of articles in the California Geology and California Mining Journal magazines over the years, starting in 1985. Frank Lorey has taken many of the photographs during his travels in the area, and for a few years he lived just outside the gold rush country.

Book excerpt: Did you know that the California Gold Rush was the largest mass migration event in the history of the United States of America? More than 300,000 people settled in the previously sparsely populated California. And they all came in the period between 1849 and 1855. But sadly, the people living in California quickly fell into violence, racism, and misogyny. Mexicans, Native Americans, other non-white settlers, and indigenous peoples were persecuted, hunted, and expelled from the territory. The California Gold Rush may have been one of the great events that shaped the US into what we know today, but it was also one of the saddest events, with 370 massacres committed upon the indigenous tribes of California. Yet, the California Gold Rush was a period of rapid changes, of industrialization and the modernization of the whole US. The influx of immigrants from all over the world demanded that new industries be quickly set up, as well as railroads, farms, and communication lines. People needed supplies from the East and the rest of the world, as well as to keep in touch with their distant families. The quick development of California, as well as the many new beginnings and successful businesses people managed to start, gave California its nickname of the Golden State. It was a place where dreams came true, where people had hope and quick prosperity. A new philosophical idea aptly named the "California Dream" started, and many people rushed to gain a fast fortune in a new land. In this book, you can read about how gold was discovered and who started it all. You can also learn the following: Who were the forty-niners and the first gold miners in California? What was life in the mining camps like? How was early mining performed, and how did it develop? How did gold excavation influence the environment and the indigenous peoples? What happened to the Native Americans of California? What was the role of women in the Gold Rush? How did California gain its statehood? How did the Gold Rush influence the world's economy? Who were the real prospectors of the California Gold Rush? And much more! Scroll up and click the "add to cart" button to learn more about the California Gold Rush!
