"CALIFORNIA AS I SAW IT": FIRST-PERSON NARRATIVES OF CALIFORNIA'S EARLY YEARS, 1849-1900

 
 

Enlace: http://lcweb2.loc.gov/ammem/cbhtml/cbhome.html

Descripción: Library of Congress.
«...consists of the full texts and illustrations of 190 works documenting the formative era of California's history through eyewitness accounts. The collection covers the dramatic decades between the Gold Rush and the turn of the twentieth century. It captures the pioneer experience; encounters between Anglo-Americans and the diverse peoples who had preceded them; the transformation of the land by mining, ranching, agriculture, and urban development; the often-turbulent growth of communities and cities; and California's emergence as both a state and a place of uniquely American dreams.»
