Frost argues that the gold rush brought about a curse on California, as it led to the displacement of Native Americans, the destruction of the environment, and the rise of a corrupt political system.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which explores a different aspect of California's history. Frost begins by describing the early days of California, when it was still a Spanish colony. She then moves on to the gold rush, which she believes had a profound and negative impact on the state. Frost argues that the influx of people seeking gold led to the destruction of California's natural resources and the displacement of Native American communities.Frost also examines the political system in California during the gold rush era, which she characterizes as corrupt and dominated by wealthy individuals. She argues that this system has persisted to the present day, contributing to many of the state's ongoing problems.Overall, California's Greatest Curse is a thought-provoking and insightful look at the history of California, and the impact of the gold rush on the state's development. It is a must-read for anyone interested in California's history, and the challenges facing the state today.Complete In One Volume.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
