Rush to Gold: The French and the California Gold Rush, 1848–1854 - The Lamar Series in Western History
Malcolm J. Rohrbough
The California Gold Rush began in 1848 and incited many "wagons west". However, only half of the 300,000 gold seekers travelled by land. The other half travelled by sea. This book tells the story of this second group. It examines the California Gold Rush through the eyes of 30,000 French participants.
