1925. Days of '49 is a super adventure; it ranks as one of the fine
period novels of American literature. Against a background of
teeming California in the days of gold, he moves a complicated cast
of characters in gunplay and heart-play. Proud Spaniards, uncouth
roughnecks with gentle hearts, smooth gentlemen with blackened
hearts, ladies of vice and virtue are meshed in high adventure as
the story of the early dash for treasure unfolds. An excellent
story, but also the only fully documented, accurate account of the
great California gold rush, as Mr. Young explains in a readable
appendix, in which he points the real characters and events on
which he has based his story.
