{"product_id":"2940011872259","title":"1854 San Francisco: A Frenchman's View","description":"In the 1850’s, the French Railroad was growing, and travel started to be sold to entertain the train riders.  After the 1849 Gold Rush, Edouard Auger and a companion traveled to California to describe the Gold Fields and San Francisco. The book, “Voyage en Californie” of 1854, presents a unique view of San Francisco: he natural setting, the daily life, the fires, the gambling and the lynch law.  Accounts of small incidents provide a direct witness report with a feeling of being there.\u003cbr\u003eWith some arrogance and French superiority complex, Auger describes the habits and quirks of Americans and American life as seen from a 1854 tourist’s eye.","brand":"walnutleafbooks","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47120975724784,"sku":"2940011872259","price":1.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940011872259_p0.jpg?v=1763550756","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940011872259","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
