By Jack S. Williams

Book Overview

This fascinating book brings to life the Miwok of California. They lived in a variety of different environments, including coastal areas, portions of the Central Valley, and the Sierra Nevada. During the early Spanish era, the western groups came into conflict with outsiders. The eastern communities suffered greatly as a result of the gold rush that began in 1849.
