5.0 out of 5 stars
A unique view of the nineteenth-century American West,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: John Bidwell and California: The Life and Writings of a Pioneer, 1841-1900 (Western Frontiersmen Series) (Hardcover)
The collaborative effort of Michael J. Gillis and Michael F. Maglian, John Bidwell And California: The Life And Writings Of A Pioneer 1841-1900 is an informative biography that draws upon pioneer John Bidwell's own writings about the time he lived in (which included the Gold Rush years), the history of the state of California, and a great deal more. Occasional black-and-white illustrations enhance this scholarly account, offering a unique view of the nineteenth-century American West through the eyes of a man who called it home. John Bidwell And California is a welcome and valued addition to Western American Frontier Studies reading lists in general and California History reference collections in particular.
