California Called Them: A Saga Of Golden Days And Roaring Camps by Robert O'Brien is a historical non-fiction book that explores the California Gold Rush of the mid-1800s. The book tells the story of the thousands of people who flocked to California in search of gold, including miners, merchants, and adventurers. The author uses primary sources such as diaries, letters, and newspapers to bring to life the experiences of these individuals and the challenges they faced in the rugged and often lawless mining camps. The book covers various aspects of the gold rush, including the impact on Native American communities, the rise of vigilante justice, and the development of San Francisco as a major city. Throughout the book, O'Brien provides a vivid and detailed account of this pivotal moment in American history, capturing the excitement, danger, and uncertainty of life during the gold rush.This is a new release of the original 1951 edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
