AlibrisWarren Hahn via Alibris Berkley University of California Press 1999 1st Edition Soft cover As New Book. 12 1/2h x 10 1/4w. A super nice 366 page first edition softcover with '1' low in number line. In this vivid account of the birth of modern California, J.S. Holliday frames the gold rush years within the larger story of the state's transformation from the quietude of a Mexican hinterland in the 1840s to the forefront of entrepreneurial capitalism by the 1890s. No other state, no nation experienced such an adolescence of freedom and success. By 1883 California was hailed as 'America, only more so.'
