4.0 out of 5 stars
Detailed, but lacking in personal touches,
By A Customer
This review is from: A Doctor's Gold Rush Journey to California (Paperback)
This is definitely an excellent gold rush diary. It is very detailed and well-written by a man with obvious intelligence. However, compared to "The World Rushed In" it is really lacking in those personal touches that make the diary more "gripping." Dr. Lord's writing is a bit clinical in comparison, which doesn't hold the reader's attention so well when describing the more monotonous details of his journey.
4.0 out of 5 stars
Wonderful slice of American History,

This review is from: A Doctor's Gold Rush Journey to California (Paperback)
Excellent detailed description of one mans journey across the country to
California in mid-19th century. Makes you long for the days when people really took writing to heart. |
