Focusing on the impact of early gold rushes, this examination delves into the 1848 California Gold Rush, the 1896 Klondike Gold Rush, and others across North America. It analyzes primary and secondary sources to explore themes of race, ethnicity, and the displacement of Indigenous peoples. Additionally, the book addresses varying perspectives on law and order in the West while prompting critical thought about labor, environmental practices, and the historical and contemporary relationships between settlers and Indigenous communities.
