Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The hand-colored plates are of exceptional quality and the engraved frontispiece is one of the glories of Gold Rush literature." (Kurutz, The California Gold Rush, 242). "Despite some bibliographical confusion, as discussed by Kurutz ... [the three plates] would seem to be all the illustrations intended to have been issued with the book. This guide is a perfectly serious one intended to be of actual use to an English emigrant. Opening with a review of English law and regulations concerning ships carrying emigrants, it soon moves to a general description of the area and its history, mostly drawn from secondary sources, such as Frémont and Vizetelly. Written principally for the poor - those for whom 'the mind succumbs to the stomach' - the author puts forth the proposition that those who can successfully practice a trade in California will ultimately prosper more than those who merely seek gold." (Sloan).

Book excerpt: Excerpt from California, Its Past History, Its Present Position, Its Future Prospects: Containing a History of the Country From Its Colonization by the Spaniards to the Present Time, a Sketch of Its Geographical and Physical Features and a Minute and Authentic Account of the Discovery of the Gold Region For the benefit of those who by these and similar conside rations may be induced to try their fortunes in other lands, this work is mainly intended. We do not propose either to disparage, or unduly depreciate the state of affairs at; home, nor to present glowing pictures and seductive promises of the homes which the emigrants may make abroad. Our object is solely to enable those who contemplate emigrating to choose the most-appropriate labour-field for the future, and to instruct them how to proceed in making their arrangements for reaching it in the most economical, safe, and expeditious manner.

Book excerpt: "The occupation of California by the people of the United States, and the discovery of its rich gold mines, form a new era in the history of the world. According to present appearances, these events forbode a complete revolution in monetary and commercial affairs. The receipts of gold from California have already produced a sensible effect on the financial affiars of our country; and far-seeing people predict an entirely new state of things with respect to the relative value of money and property."--Preface

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of California, From Its Discovery to the Present Time The State of California has attained, and will long occupy, a prominent place in the public mind. Not only its great product of gold and other mineral wealth, but the adaptation of its soil and climate to the pursuits of agriculture, the proper seasons and best course of husbandry for the successful cultivation of the various crops, its influence as an independent state on the future of the American Union, its geographical position, the extent, character and variety, of its resources, &c., are all subjects of special and increasing interest to large numbers in the older states. Beyond its own limits, comparatively little has been known of the particular history of its gold mines and mining grounds; of the toils, perils and success, of its miners; of their modes and operations of mining, and of the vast amount of capital which is invested in that adventurous business. Nor has a description of the magic city of San Francisco, as it now exists, - of its moral, social and commercial state, - before been written; and the public, at a distance from the scene, have been enabled to view it only in a faint and glimmering light.
