This book was released on 2000-12-17 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the Bancroft Prize The world of the California Gold Rush that comes down to us through fiction and film is one of half-truths. In this brilliant work of social history, Susan Lee Johnson enters the well-worked diggings of Gold Rush history and strikes a rich lode. Johnson explores the dynamic social world created by the Gold Rush in the Sierra Nevada foothills east of Stockton, charting the surprising ways in which the conventions of identity—ethnic, national, and sexual—were reshaped. With a keen eye for character and story, she shows us how this peculiar world evolved over time, and how our cultural memory of the Gold Rush took root.

Download or read book Gold Rush Manliness written by Christopher Herbert and published by University of Washington Press. This book was released on 2018-10-31 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The mid-nineteenth-century gold rushes bring to mind raucous mining camps and slapped-together cities populated by carousing miners, gamblers, and prostitutes. Yet many of the white men who went to the gold fields were products of the Victorian era: educated men who valued morality and order. Examining the closely linked gold rushes in California and British Columbia, historian Christopher Herbert shows that these men worried about the meaning of their manhood in the near-anarchic, ethnically mixed societies that grew up around the mines. As white gold rushers emigrated west, they encountered a wide range of people they considered inferior and potentially dangerous to white dominance, including Latin American, Chinese, and Indigenous peoples. The way that white miners interacted with these groups reflected their conceptions of race and morality, as well as the distinct political principles and strategies of the US and British colonial governments. The white miners were accustomed to white male domination, and their anxiety to continue it played a central role in the construction of colonial regimes. In addition to renovating traditional understandings of the Pacific Slope gold rushes, Herbert argues that historians� understanding of white manliness has been too fixated on the eastern United States and Britain. In the nineteenth century, popular attention largely focused on the West. It was in the gold fields and the cities they spawned that new ideas of white manliness emerged, prefiguring transformations elsewhere.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Chile Reader makes available a rich variety of documents spanning more than five hundred years of Chilean history. Most of the selections are by Chileans; many have never before appeared in English. The history of Chile is rendered from diverse perspectives, including those of Mapuche Indians and Spanish colonists, peasants and aristocrats, feminists and military strongmen, entrepreneurs and workers, and priests and poets. Among the many selections are interviews, travel diaries, letters, diplomatic cables, cartoons, photographs, and song lyrics. Texts and images, each introduced by the editors, provide insights into the ways that Chile's unique geography has shaped its national identity, the country's unusually violent colonial history, and the stable but autocratic republic that emerged after independence from Spain. They shed light on Chile's role in the world economy, the social impact of economic modernization, and the enduring problems of deep inequality. The Reader also covers Chile's bold experiments with reform and revolution, its subsequent descent into one of Latin America's most ruthless Cold War dictatorships, and its much-admired transition to democracy and a market economy in the years since dictatorship.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A wide-ranging exploration of the diverse historical connections between Chile and California This groundbreaking history explores the many unrecognized, enduring linkages between the state of California and the country of Chile. The book begins in 1786, when a French expedition brought the potato from Chile to California, and it concludes with Chilean president Michelle Bachelet's diplomatic visit to the Golden State in 2008. During the intervening centuries, new crops, foods, fertilizers, mining technologies, laborers, and ideas from Chile radically altered California's development. In turn, Californian systems of servitude, exotic species, educational programs, and capitalist development strategies dramatically shaped Chilean history. Edward Dallam Melillo develops a new set of historical perspectives--tracing eastward-moving trends in U.S. history, uncovering South American influences on North America's development, and reframing the Western Hemisphere from a Pacific vantage point. His innovative approach yields transnational insights and recovers long-forgotten connections between the peoples and ecosystems of Chile and California.

Download or read book Gold Rush of California written by Robert Badella and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2009-09 with total page 85 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Sutter and James Marshall actually formed a partnership together on August 27, 1847 for the purpose of building a saw mill along the American River located in the Sacramento Valley. While inspecting the waters depth of a tailrace ditch on January 24th 1848, Marshall apparently discovered what appeared to be gold. For them to obtain legal title of that gold, Sutter and Marshall officially presented a lease agreement to Governor Richard Mason of the State. Significantly large quantities of gold had been taken out of its southern fork on this American River which subsequently led to the discovery of Mormon Island as well as other gold mining camps. Within 1849 over 80,000 mining prospectors were widely scattered throughout the San Joaquin and Sacramento Valleys. Many of these gold seekers merely arrived at California by steamship via Cape Horn while others mainly came overland across the Oregon Trail. In fact a substantial number of Argonauts were making their seaward expedition to California while coming from Chile and Peru. During 1854 at least 300,000 thousand men had been curiously roaming the California foothills regional area for its contingent quest of gold. Furthermore this tremendous impact which was brought upon by that California gold rush was perhaps one of the greatest events in history.
