Here are women who were first in their accomplishments, often conquering odds far and above the conditions that men had to meet. Take Donaldina Cameron, who braved hazardous opposition to rescue more than 3000 Asian slave girls that had been sold to become prostitutes in cities such as San Francisco. Listeners will also learn about several other women that helped make California what it is today.

The Creators
Revisado: 03-12-13
Is there anything you would change about this book?
Boorstin is a brilliant, brilliant scholar. The audible version, however, did not quite have the some dynamism as reading the actual book.
Could you see The Creators being made into a movie or a TV series? Who should the stars be?
Maybe a PBS series.
Any additional comments?

The Klondike gold rush, which occurred between 1896 and 1899, was one of the strangest outbreaks of "gold fever" ever to take place. With news of California's rush still fresh in their minds, thousands of men with get-rich-quick dreams hurried to stake out claims in the Yukon. But they did not count on the murderous weather...or the severe mountain passes that protected the gold.

The Stampede for Gold is Brought to Life
Revisado: 04-02-12
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
It is a lively text by the authority on the Klondike combined with a wonderful narrative voice that makes the text even more exciting.
What about Andy Caploe’s performance did you like?
He did brilliantly -- better than a movie.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
No, I listen during my evening one-hour walks.
Any additional comments?
A superb experience.
