Beschreibung
The California Gold Rush is thought to exemplify the Wild West, yet miners were expert organizers. Driven by property interests, they enacted mining codes, held criminal trials, and decided claim disputes. But democracy and law did not extend to "foreigners" and Indians, and miners were hesitant to yield power to the state that formed around them.
