More about the book
Set in 1850, Sacramento is depicted as a bustling city primarily inhabited by men, with a transient population drawn to the nearby gold mines. The vibrant waterfront is alive with oxen, mule teams, and abandoned ships, highlighting the chaotic atmosphere. As a significant railroad junction and agricultural center, the city evolved into the state government hub. Photographer Tom Myers showcases this historical landscape through a curated collection of vintage postcards, capturing the essence of early Sacramento, including railroads, farms, and government buildings.
