Journey back to the time of the California Gold Rush with Henry Vizetelly, penning under the pseudonym J. Tyrwhitt Brooks, as he shares his adventures from 1847-1848. Originally intending to join the US Army as a surgeon during the Mexican war, he instead found himself part of a band of hopeful gold prospectors when the war ended before his enlistment. His medical background offers a unique lens through which we experience the trials, triumphs, and characters of this bold new frontier. Despite his medical prowess, he is helpless against the rampant gold fever that has turned towns into ghostly shells. Among the prospectors, only a seasoned fur-trapper remains immune to the intoxicating allure of gold. As he navigates through this unfamiliar landscape, he encounters a wealth of experiences - from meeting Mormons and Indians, to the thrilling discovery of gold. His journey takes a final twist when an unexpected reversal of fortune quashes his dreams of a leisurely retirement, revealing the bitter undercurrent of greed seeping through the mining camps.Copyright Biographies and Memoirs 世界 社会科学
