About This Book

James Stephens Brown (b. 1828) was one of James W. Marshall's companions on January 24, 1848, when Marshall discovered gold in the raceway of a mill his workmen were constructing for Johann Sutter at Coloma. Brown later settled in Utah. California gold (1894) is here reprinted from a version published in the Magazine of history in 1933. Brown recounts his association with Sutter and Marshall as well as the events of January 24, 1848.
