Sobre este artículo
The Old West Publishing Co. , Denver.. Fine with No dust jacket as issued. 1962. First Edition, First Printing Limited To 1,000 copies. Hardcover. Many of the pages are uncut. Book is protected in a clear mylar jacket. The book was issued with out a dust jacket. No names, writing, or marks in book. Published in 1962 in a limited hardcover edition of 1000, this remarkable record of a California miner in the 1850s is an important--and in many ways unique--contribution to our knowledge of the Gold Rush. In a tempestuous period in which there was no newspaper to record the daily life of the busy towns of Volcano and Jackson, Doble recorded much of value. He was a man whose mind was concerned with details. Because he did not know what to leave out of his letters and journal, he put everything in, bringing his times vividly to life. All illustrations and folding maps are present. 304 numbered pages includes editor's notes plus a 3 page unnumbered index. Book is in Fine condition. ; 7 1/4 in. x 10 1/2 in. .
