The California Gold Rush inspired a new American dream--the "dream of instant wealth, won by audacity and good luck." The discovery of gold on the American River in 1848 triggered the most astonishing mass movement of peoples since the Crusades. It drew fortune-seekers from the ends of the earth, accelerated America's imperial expansion, and exacerbated the tensions that exploded in the Civil War. H.W. Brands tells his epic story from multiple perspectives: of adventurers John and Jessie Fremont, entrepreneur Leland Stanford, and the wry observer Samuel Clemens--side by side with prospectors, soldiers, and scoundrels. He imparts a visceral sense of the distances they traveled, the suffering they endured, and the fortunes they made and lost. Impressive in its scholarship and overflowing with life, The Age of Gold is history in the grand traditions of Stephen Ambrose and David McCullough.Binding Type: Paperback

Beautiful, Sturdy, Excellent Customer Service!!
Size: 6 Tier, Color: White
Excellent quality item, and beyond outstanding customer service!
This jewelry case is very thoughtfully configured, to accommodate various sizes and shapes of jewelry.
I purchased this primarily to keep my fine gold chains entangled, and there are numerous velvet hooks, with pockets below to do this.
The dividers are not removable, but because there six drawers with difference size choices, it was not an issue, tho some customers may have that question. The watch band bolsters, however, ARE removable.
I chose the cream color case with tan/gold interior velvet lining. BUT, the lining, in my view, looks actually to be dusty rose/mauve in color. Not a screaming pink, a bit subtle, but it doesn't look tan as in the photo.
Just FYI, in case the interior color is a big deal for you. But the exterior light cream is just as pictured, and is beautiful!
Regarding the customer service for this company, I contacted them prior to and after purchase. They responded very quickly, and were clear and articulate in answering my questions / addressing my concerns
Thank you!
