About the author

William C. (William Christian) Lobenstine

1831–1918

These vivid diary extracts follow a young immigrant who headed west during the Gold Rush, recording wagon-train travel, mining life in California, and the long trip back east. His firsthand notes offer an unusually personal window into everyday life on the mid-19th-century American frontier.
