"We have no work that tracks the migrants from origin to destination and back again with the care of The Rush to Gold. . . . It should also be a staple of graduate reading lists, particularly for those looking for a primer about how to write history that places American events in their worldly context."--Stephen Aron, UCLA, "We have no work that tracks the migrants from origin to destination and back again with the care of The Rush to Gold. . . .

Synopsis
The California Gold Rush began in 1848 and incited many "wagons west." However, only half of the 300,000 gold seekers traveled by land. The other half traveled by sea. And it's the story of this second group that interests Malcolm Rohrbough in his authoritative new book, The Rush to Gold. He examines the California Gold Rush through the eyes of 30,000 French participants. In so doing, he offers a completely original analysis of an important--but previously neglected--chapter in the history of the Gold Rush, which occurred at a time of sweeping changes in France. Rohrbough is the author of Days of Gold , which is generally accepted as the essential text on the subject. This new book comes out of his extended research in French archives. He is the first to provide an international focus to these pivotal events in mid-nineteenth-century America. The Rush to Gold is an important contribution to the fast-growing field of transnational American history.

- 0***r (35)- Évaluation laissée par l'acheteur.Six derniers moisAchat vérifiéCD arrived in condition described and plays great. The packaging was excellent. There was a small piece of bubble wrap placed inside the jewel case to protect the CD. The jewel case was then placed in a light plastic bag and inserted into a double-walled bubble wrap envelope.
