Gold
by Stewart Edward White
Publisher: Doubleday, Page & Company 1913
ISBN/ASIN: B002L16QK4

I decided to join the gold rush to California in the year 1849. It was in the air; and I was then of a romantic and adventurous disposition. The land was infinitely remote; and then, as now, romance increases as the square of the distance.
