The best short essay work I have seen on this subject
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
In line with much of the new non-fiction surveys and studies, the book, in short essays gives the picture on much information that I have not seen before on the Gold Rush and the aftermath. In particular it gives a reader a chance to compare the Internet investment frenzy with the Gold Mine stocks frenzy in the 1860s & 70s.The information is concise and beautifully and fascinatingly written.
