Book excerpt: Twelve letters from Boylan in California to his wife Margaret in Jackson Creek, Illinois; one letter from Boylan to his son, James. The collection documents Boylan's stay in California during the gold rush period, 1850 to 1853. It is clear from the letters that Boylan considered his California venture to be a short-term commitment with the goal of improving his economic situation so that he could return to his farm and family in Illinois. He recounts at length his involvement in mining, including the establishment of a quartz-mining operation along the Feather River as well as tradition river mining operations in Fresno County. He discusses life as a miner and relations between miners and the early residents of California, both Indians and Mexicans. A constant theme throughout is his yearning for home and his desire to "bid adieu a last adieu to this land of visionary golden dreams to again bask in the sunshine of home sweet home."
