"The hand-colored plates are of exceptional quality and the engraved frontispiece is one of the glories of Gold Rush literature." (Kurutz, The California Gold Rush, 242). "Despite some bibliographical confusion, as discussed by Kurutz ... [the three plates] would seem to be all the illustrations intended to have been issued with the book. This guide is a perfectly serious one intended to be of actual use to an English emigrant. Opening with a review of English law and regulations concerning ships carrying emigrants, it soon moves to a general description of the area and its history, mostly drawn from secondary sources, such as Frémont and Vizetelly. Written principally for the poor - those for whom 'the mind succumbs to the stomach' - the author puts forth the proposition that those who can successfully practice a trade in California will ultimately prosper more than those who merely seek gold." (Sloan).
