book review from the back cover, "Mary Hill's first-rate narrative is a remarkable synthesis. She skillfully weaves together the geology, history, and romance of the gold story in a lively and informative style. She also tells of the impact of the gold rush on California's Native Americans as well as on the environment. Anyone interested in California history, especially the gold rush, will relish this book." Martin Ridge The Huntington Library DF5.
