Great book. Couldn't put it down!:

This book combines a great storyline with lots of history. Its fast pace will keep you from putting it down!

The Gold Coast:

This book is one of the most interesting I've ever listened to. The plot of the story holds your attention from beginning to end, and the main character, John Sutter is so witty you just fall in love with him.
