Summary
"The Angels Camp and Copperopolis regions offer a fascinating chapter in the history of the Mother Lode. Calaveras County's southwest corner has many tales to tell. An important Gold Rush town, Angels Camp gained even greater fame through Twain's 'The celebrated jumping frog of Calaveras County,' which inspired the world-famous Jumping Frog Jubilee. At the same time, Copperopolis became a critical supplier of copper to the Union during the Civil War and legendary outlaw Black Bart made his first and his last stagecoach holdup here"--Back cover.
