Gold! Gold From the American River! is a great book introducing young readers to the California Gold Rush of 1849. We learn about how gold was discovered, the challenges and hazards of traveling to California by land or sea, techniques of gold mining, difficulties and disappointments with gold mining, the unfortunate fate of American Indians in California, and entrepreneurs such as Philip Armour and Levi Strauss. Author Don Brown uses primary sources in the narrative and supplements the text with vivid watercolors. The book emphasizes that the merchants profited the most from the Gold Rush. Though the book is designed more for young readers, adults will find this volume to be a great overview about one of the largest mass migrations in history.
