520    Examines the ways in which easterners who traveled West 
       during the California gold rush of 1849-51 obtained, 
       assessed, and used information. By providing a historical 
       context for assessing information and by viewing 
       communication strategies as a core element of the gold 
       rush itself, this book reveals a connection between media,
       myth, and reality.
