Historically accurate and easy to read
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
It was fun reading that book, it took me only 3 days! Gwen Bristow uses her writing skills to bring historic events to life. From the discovery of gold at Sutter's Mill to California's admission as the 31st state of the Union - an interesting description of California history. Including a portrayal of the first woman (and baby daughter) to travel to California across the country in 1841.
