"Life's Prizes Are by Labor Got": Risk, Reward, and White Manliness in the California Gold Rush

CHRISTOPHER HERBERT

HERBERT, Christopher

discusses the significant changes in social structures and perceptions of risk, reward, and manliness of white men that emerged as a result of the gold rush in California in the mid-19th century and investigates the sociological perception of gold mining as a form of gambling and the possibility of a blurring of the lines between respectable business ventures and illicit behavior
