Book excerpt: Excerpt from Notes on the Gold Districts of California, New Holland, Russia, and America: With Four Maps Sardis. In Asia Minor. It was through the produce thus obtained, that the nations on both shores of the Medi terranean Archipelago obtained that large supply of the precious metals, which had so great an influence on their advancing civilisation. It is true that individual adventurers were ever ready to engage in enterprises which promised wealth, and although the voyage of the Argonauts engaged the best blood of Hellas, yet neither gold robbing nor gold working enriched the nations of the west. At a later historical period, military expeditions brought large supplies of the precious metals into Europe, but there is no marked epoch of prosperity which can be assigned to their influence.

Download or read book The Army Surveys of Gold Rush California written by Gary Clayton Anderson and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2015-04-06 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the army’s topographical engineer in California from 1849 to 1851, George Horatio Derby wrote detailed reports on the region, its people, its resources, and its geography—providing critical information for an understaffed military charged with bringing order to a vast new empire along the Pacific Slope. Early maps and reports by pioneers, trappers, and newspapermen, even by such professionals as John C. Frémont and William Emory, were limited in scope and often unreliable. In contrast, those authored by Derby and the army’s other trained topographical engineers were remarkably accurate, extensive, and richly descriptive. Long buried in the files of the National Archives, they have also remained largely unknown, even to historians. Collected and reproduced here for the first time, these journals and maps offer a new and unique perspective on California in the mid-nineteenth century. Derby’s reports and journals appear alongside those of Robert Stockton Williamson, William H. Warner, Edward O. C. Ord, Nathaniel Lyon, Henry Walton Wessells, and Erasmus Darwin Keyes. These documents offer extraordinary firsthand views of the environment, natural resources, geography, and early settlement, as well as the effects of disease on Native and white populations. The writers’ detailed, often witty insights offer new understandings of life in California during an era of momentous change. Historian Gary Clayton Anderson and anthropologist Laura Lee Anderson provide historical, geographic, and biographical context in the book’s introduction and in headnotes and annotations for each journal. With these editorial enhancements, the documents reveal as much of the character of their authors and their time as of the land and peoples they so carefully describe.

Download or read book The Mountains That Remade America written by Craig H. Jones and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2017-09-05 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From ski towns to national parks, fresh fruit to environmental lawsuits, the Sierra Nevada has changed the way Americans live. Where there was gold to be mined (and where there was not) redefined land, mineral, and water laws. Where rain falls (and where it doesn’t) determines whose fruit grows on trees and whose appears on slot machines. All this emerges from the geology of the range and how it changed history, and in so doing, changed the country. The Mountains That Remade America combines geology with history to show how the particular forces and conditions that created the Sierra Nevada have effected broad outcomes and influenced daily life in the United States in the past and continue to do so today. Drawing connections between events in historical geology and contemporary society, Craig H. Jones makes geological science accessible and shows the vast impact this mountain range has had on the American West.
