Synopsis

The Argonauts Of Forty-Nine: Some Recollections Of The Plains And The Diggings is a historical book written by David Rohrer Leeper and published in 1895. The book is a memoir of Leeper's experiences during the California Gold Rush of 1849, when he and thousands of others traveled to California in search of gold. Leeper describes the journey to California, the harsh conditions of the mining camps, and the struggles and successes of the miners. He also provides insights into the social and economic conditions of the time, including the impact of the Gold Rush on the indigenous population. The book is a firsthand account of a significant period in American history and provides a glimpse into the lives of the people who participated in the Gold Rush.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
