California War

World War Three has been avoided for just over the last century, but the world was changed forever with The Rh Factor War in 2053. Global powers, including the United States of America, along with most of the world, were hit with newly manufactured and never-before-seen chemical weapon agents (CWAs). The devastating and surprise attacks reduced the United States’ population by 85%. Tragically, it was the same situation for most of the world, with a majority of the globe systematically and methodically attacked by these new CWAs. Logan Miller is a mechanic from Greeley, Colorado. He was on...

In this revelatory study, award-winning historian Leonard L. Richards outlines the links between the Gold Rush and the Civil War. He explains that Southerners envisioned California as a new market for slaves, schemed to tie California to the South via railroad, and imagined splitting off the state's southern half as a slave state. Richards recounts the political battles and the fiery California feuds, duels, and, perhaps, outright murders as the state came shockingly close to being divided in two.

The ragtag band of American counter-intelligence agents develop and run an operation that stops a Japanese invasion.

Between 1846 and 1873, California's Indian population plunged from perhaps 150,000 to 30,000.

This deeply researched book is a comprehensive and chilling history of an American genocide.

La política del “destino manifiesto” aumentó las tensiones con México en la década de 1840. La mitad norte de México formaba la frontera occidental del territorio que había sido adquirido en la Compra de Luisiana.
