About this book

A pioneer looks back on the gold rush in these reminiscences of mining days in California, published in 1890. Charles Warren Haskins wrote them from memory during a snowbound winter in northern Idaho and drew the illustrations himself, among them the swell at Cape Horn, forty-niners in a hotel at Lima and scenes in the mines and in Sacramento. The book also prints about 35,000 names of early gold seekers, in lists grouped partly by how they travelled, whether overland or by sea from ports such as New York and New Orleans.
