This is number 91 in the Lakeside Classic series, which started in 1904. Black and white illustrations throughout. This book pairs the memoirs of James Wilson Marshall and Edward Gould Buffum, detailing the transition of California from Mexican territory into a booming frontier. James Wilson Marshall (October 8, 1810 - August 10, 1885) was an American carpenter and sawmill operator, who on January 24, 1848, reported the finding of gold at Coloma, California, a settlement on the American River about 36 miles northeast of Sacramento. His discovery was the impetus for the California gold rush. The mill was owned by Johann (John) Sutter who employed Marshall to build his mill. Edward Gould Buffum (1820-1867) was a soldier and journalist. When the Mexican-American War began in 1846, Buffum moved to California with his regiment. He was a lieutenant of the 1st Regiment of New York Volunteers. After his 1848 discharge, he remained in California. His experiences were published in Six Months in the Gold Mine. He continued his journalism career and he became a special correspondent for the Herald. James Wilson Marshall's account focuses heavily on the events surrounding the 1848 discovery of gold in California, and the resulting economic upheaval. Edward Gould Buffum's memoir offers a perspective of a pioneer and journalist, detailing the end of the Mexican-American War and life in the mining camps. R. R. Donnelly: A volume of The Lakeside Classics series has been published annually since 1903 as a holiday gift to employees, customers and friends of R. R. Donnelley. According to company folklore, in 1902, T.E. Donnelley, son of the founder and president of RR Donnelley & Sons Company, received a set of straight-razors as a Christmas gift. Its special appeal was that the blades were a product directly associated with the donor's cutlery business, not the type of frivolous and gaudy item that was the common business gift at the time. T.E. thought it would be a fine thing if his company could provide something of a similar nature. The project took root and by Christmas, 1903, the first Lakeside Classic, "The Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin", had been selected, designed, edited, printed, and was ready to ship. The basic format of the Lakeside Classics has remained the same for more than 100 years, testifying to the sound design of the first volume. Each 25 years the cover material is changed and type style adjusted to keep pace with current developments in fine book making. Production methods are updated as book manufacturing improvements are introduced. Current editions use electronic page composition, digital scanning and state-of-the-art computer-to-plate technologies. The small, pocketbook size, format was intended for convenience. The book was bound in a plain dark-green cloth cover. It was stamped, in real gold that also adorned the top-edge, with the R. R. Donnelley Indianhead logo that had been created by Chicagoan Joseph Leyendecker. Many of the early volumes consisted of the speeches and writings of noted Americans. With the publication in 1911 of "The Autobiography of Gurdon Saltonstall Hubbard", the series took its present character: first-person narratives of American history, usually taken from books long out of print and not easily obtainable. Through the 1980s, the volumes emphasized history on the North American continent, including titles on the Civil War, the American Old West, early exploration and everyday frontier life. During the 1990s, as the company extended its business internationally, the series was expanded to include narratives by Americans with experiences beyond our borders. The Classics have benefited from of a line of distinguished historians and university professors and directors of well-known historical societies w.…
