Description
New York, 1949 Book. Fine. Soft cover. First separate edition, first published in January, 1949 in The New Colophon, v. 2, part 5. Thin quarto. Pp. 54-67. Printed in brown and black. Original gray wrappers printed in black. Very slight darkening to edges of wrappers, but a fine copy. This article was obviously the outcome of Wheat's research and interest in books about the California Gold Rush which culminated in his Books of the California Gold Rush, a Centennial Selection published the same year. The author covers the official reports; the earliest descriptive accounts; narratives sent or brought back from California; later reminiscences; contemporary accounts printed for the first time in recent years; fiction and drama, and the researchers. [Harding, Writings of Wheat: 94]..
