Synopsis
James Macklin Chase was a poor Pennsylvanian who dreamed of making it rich in California. But at the turn of the century, the money to be made was in oil, citrus, water rights, and the railroads. Mack would have it all, if he had his way. And along the way, the men and women he met, the passion he found, the enemies he made, and the great historical figures like William Randolph Hearts, Leland Stanford, and Theodore Roosevelt, he encountered, helped bring glory to the extraordinary century. "Riveting...CALIFORNIA GOLD strikes pay dirt....This sweeping epic is a dynamite tribute to the sheer pluck of one man who scorns all obstacles. He instills vibrancy in all his characterizations." RICHMOND TIMES-DISPATCH A Literary Guild Main Selection

    Item was packed very carefully for shipping, and it arrived in perfect condition. The cost of shipping was reasonable, especially considering that the item is delicate (it's an antique china piece). Item arrived exactly as described. Great value for the price. Highly rated seller! Thank you so much for a great transaction. So happy to add this to my collection.

    Historical period with fictional characters. Great historical view of how California came to be.

    Jakes is a master of historical accuracy. He has written dozens of books that will force people to learn about the history of our country and world by following the escaped of a fictional character.
