Publisher's Note
"Art of the Gold Rush" features drawings and oil paintings of images of the scenery, people, and activity surrounding the 80,000 travelers to California in search of golden nuggets.

Industry Reviews
Tales of stubborn prospectors and boisterous boomtown life have crystallized into myth, but the art of that era, drawings and paintings by both self-taught and trained artists lured to the scene either for gold or the chance to sell their work, is little known. The exhibition this fine volume documents was mounted to correct this omission in U.S. art history, and Driesbach and her contributors do a superb job of combining gold-rush lore with discussions of the energetic landscapes and portraits that so avidly chronicle it. Most of the artists discussed will be new to readers, although the polished portraits of San Francisco's elite by William Smith Jewett may ring a bell.

[This is] an attractive addition to the many books focusing on the Gold Rush in this anniversary year. . . . While not essential, this is certainly worth considering for collections on the frontier and the West, and for regional California collections it is doubtless a mandatory purchase.
