"ONE OF THE EARLIEST PUBLISHED ACCOUNTS BY AN ACTUAL 'RETURNED CALIFORNIAN'" (Wheat). First edition, later issue with frontispiece and uncolored map. "Johnson's book provided one of the earliest, liveliest, and most detailed accounts of the Gold Rush. In his preface dated September 1849, the gold seeker wrote: "Seized with the gold fever and resolved to judge of the wealth of El Dorado by actual observation, I embarked on one of the first steamers which sailed from New York." Johnson began his journey on February 5, 1849 on board the steamer Crescent City, and sailed for Panama. Much of the text is devoted to the crossing, delays, and life on the Isthmus. Boarding the Oregon, Johnson and 280 fellow-passengers headed north, entered San Francisco Bay on April 1 and, by April 12, arrived at Sutter's Mill. Johnson then spent the next several days in the Mother Lode, making observations of camps and towns, prominent individuals like Captain Sutter, Old Greenwood, and John Sinclair. He also wrote about the Indians and their mistreatment, Peruvians, social life, mining methods, and the natural wealth of California. Meeting with little success, worried over health, and faced with stiff competition in San Francisco, Johnson left California on May 1. He reached Philadelphia on June 26, via the Isthmus" (Kurutz).
