About
The Gold Fields of California
A historical adventure set during the California Gold Rush. The story follows Frank Norris, a young Englishman falsely accused of theft while at school. Rather than face disgrace, he flees to America to seek his fortune and prove his innocence. Frank embarks on a perilous journey across the Atlantic and the American frontier, eventually making his way to the goldfields of California.
First published in 1889, this edition is derived from the original book with 12 black & white illustrations by H. M. Paget. As always, this edition is complete and unabridged.
