His love for nature, conservation, and adventure were to become very much a part of his literary works over his long career. Stewart once said his books, including his novels, were stories based upon actual experience. He loved writing about pioneers of the nineteenth century, the West, logging, and nature.In Gold, White gives a detailed story of the 1849 California Gold Rush, which was the beginning of the building of the Golden State, from San Francisco, to Sacramento, immigrants who came to find their fortune, some in the gold mines, others in the growing commerce, still others by building a government and social order out of chaos. It was an important time in history and shows how progress can be a success or can corrupt.In Linda Pendleton’s new Introduction we learn who Stewart Edward White was and the legacy he left of his many fiction and nonfiction books following his death in 1946.
