Stillman, a medical doctor who arrived by sea in San Francisco in August 1849 and who came to spend the coming years in Sacramento where he lived through the period of remarkable change that swept across California. The problem of early flooding of the Sacramento River was a prominent part of the Stillman diaries. The book is illustrated with various etchings and drawings from the gold rush period. 74+ pages.
