From observations on the "Yankee ladies" ("the fair sex fades here extremely soon") to experiences of Sacramento life during the Californian gold rush ("I believe that no where in the world gambling is carried on to a more alarming extent"), Schliemann's commentary on 19th-century America make lively reading.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
