Description

1849 1st ed California Gold Finders Henry Vizetelly FAMOUS Indians MAP Animals

Henry Vizetelly was a 19th-century English author who, in 1849, claimed to be one of the thousands who headed to California to seek and find gold. Vezetelly wrote this, his most popular book, based on the adventures of other gold-seekers. ‘California’, as it is more commonly known, was once considered the best account of gold-rush era California travel, even though it was fabricated from an author who never visited California!

This rare and valuable edition includes a frontispiece map of California in addition to the highly desirable content on Indians, gold mining, traveling in California, and wild west animals!
