Condición: Very Good. No Dust Jacket As Issued. First Edition, First Printing. A vivid German-American overland and Gold-Rush narrative documenting Frank Lecouvreur's 18511853 journey from East Prussia to the mines of northern California. Green cloth binding with gilt vignette. Bindings square and tight. Front hinge firm but has… some open spots Text clean with a few minor spots of foxing. Minor fading to spine. Light shelf handling. First Edition. xiii, [14]-355 pp. With black-and-white plates throughout. 23 by 15 cm (9 x 6inches), Green cloth, gilt vignette on front panel. Double page map of the area of the Feather and Yuba Rivers. Portrait frontispiece and 22 illustrations. Frank Lecouvreur's manuscript journal offers one of the more unusual immigrant narratives from the Gold-Rush era: a Prussian traveler arriving in California in 1851 who chronicled, in meticulous detail, the people, places, and conflicts he encountered. His accounts of the Yuba and Feather River mining districts, the Los Angeles Vigilance Committee, early agricultural commerce, interactions with Native Californians, and the 1871 Chinese Massacre form a valuable record of the state's volatile early decades. This work remains an essential primary source for California historians, Gold-Rush collectors, Western Americana, and scholars of trans-Atlantic migration. Subjects: Voyages to the Pacific Coast; Ethnic groups in California; Mines and mineral resourcesCalifornia; AgricultureCalifornia; BusinessCalifornia; CaliforniaDescription and travel; Los Angeles history; Yuba & Feather River regions.
