Download or read book Native California Hero s of the Miwok Confederation Teleguac Estanislas and Yolosko written by Guy Nixon and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2020-03-16 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Teleguac aka Chief Jose Jesus was one of California’s na-tive freedom fighters. Living through an extremely turbulent period in time where everything was put into chaos by climatic disasters and invasions by other races to the very foundations upon which the tribes were based, he would not only survive but forged a future for his people. This unique leader was also chosen by an animal that protected him in numerous battles and who’s presence brought many tribes together in common cause creating what can best be described as the Miwok Confedera-tion. His life’s story inspired the fictional California Hero we call Zorro but the real story is even more fascinating than the fiction. The real history of California Natives is almost com-pletely unknown yet it shaped the history in so many ways that it merits being brought out for all to learn.

Download or read book Riches for All written by Kenneth N. Owens and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2002-01-01 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An event of international significance, the California gold rush created a more diverse, metropolitan society than the world had ever known. In Riches for All, leading scholars reexamine the gold rush, evaluating its trajectory and legacy within a global context of religion and race, economics, technology, law, and culture. The opportunity for instant wealth directly influenced a dynamic range of peoples, including Mormon military veterans, California Indian workers, both slave and free African Americans, Chinese village farmers, skilled Mexican miners, and Chilean merchants. Riches for All gives attention to the varying motivations and experiences of these groups and to their struggles with both racial and religious bigotry. Emphasizing gold rush social history, some contributors examine the roles and influence of women, workers, law-breakers, and law-enforcers. Others consider the long-term impact of this episode on California and the American West and on subsequent gold rushes in Pacific Rim countries and the Klondike. With lively and incisive strokes, these historians sketch the most broadly contextualized and nuanced portrait of the California gold rush to date.
