American Alchemy: The California Gold Rush and Middle-Class Culture

This had an enjoyable narration and was a tale I hadn't heard of yet in history. Can't - or can I? - believe this captain straight-up murdered a black crewman because he could. At least he didn't have acclaim in the papers after his - in my opinion - well-deserved violent death, but wow. A bunch of shady behavior with all these dudes keeping their silence. Glad we got the story somehow. A short read too, got through it on audio in one work day.
