Alle Exemplare der Ausgabe mit dieser ISBN anzeigen:"I was delighted, even slightly overwhelmed, by the extraordinary scholarship and elegant writing of this book. Because Vaught writes so well, his study reads like a novel in its rich detail and narrative pace. It offers us a unique insight into the environmental history of the Sacramento Valley, banking and credit in California in the mid-nineteenth century, the entrepreneurial spirit of the times, community on the California frontier, the legal culture of the times, and a number of other important topics. It will appeal to scholars of American history, of American social and agricultural history, of the newly developing field of American business history, and Californianists of every sort."
(Kevin Starr, University of Southern California, author of California: A History)"Tells a powerful story that merits greater attention."
(Abraham Hoffman Journal of the West)"In this work on California's agricultural history, Vaught also provides a social history of the development of the Putah Creek region in the wake of the California gold rush... Libraries with collections forcusing on California, the Pacific slope, the western US, and agricultural history will want this book."
(Choice)"An excellent history of farming in the Sacramento Valley in the late nineteenth century."
(Ralph Mann California History)"Vaught tells a riveting story of two generations of farmers who 'committed themselves not only to the market but to community life as well.' He argues that these twin commitments, born of their failures in the gold fields, were an essential part of the culture of American capitalism that emerged in the second half of the nineteenth century."
(Ryan J. Carey Business History Review)"A rich account of a rural world that has been overlooked by historians, and it is an important addition to recent work on rural life that has, to date, focused exclusively on the Midwest... very accessible to general and specialist readers alike."
(Jeff Bremer Southern California Quarterly)"Useful for those seeking to understand the relationship between California's gold rush and its agricultural communities."
(Eric Steiger Western Historical Quarterly)"Vaught set himself the goal of writing a 'new' rural history of California, examining the state's wheat farmers in their social and cultural contexts. In After the Gold Rush, he achieves his goal admirably."
(James J. Rawls Journal of American History)"An agricultural history that weaves together an unpredictable creek, a fluctuating market, and the perseverance of the American Dream."
(Melody M. Miyamoto Journal of Interdisciplinary History)"Ambitious, richly detailed."
