Described as a 'forest of masts', San Francisco's Gold Rush waterfront was a floating economy of ships and wharves, where an array of global goods was traded and transported. This work covers the city's remarkable rise from a small village to a boomtown of thousands in the three short years from 1848 to 1851.
