Spreading the Word: A History of Information in the California Gold Rush

Examines the ways in which easterners who travelled West during the California gold rush of 1849-51 obtained, assessed, and used information. This book follows several gold rush companies across the country, gleaning from their letters and diaries a sense of how they obtained information and evaluated its constantly changing sources.
