Kit Carson, The Prince Of The Gold Hunters: The Miser John Vernon, Discovering The Suicide Of His Wife, Who Had For Years Eluded His Pursuit (1849) is a historical novel written by Charles E. Averill. The book tells the story of Kit Carson, a famous American frontiersman and explorer, who embarks on a journey to California during the Gold Rush of 1849. Along the way, he encounters John Vernon, a miserly man who has been searching for his wife for years. Vernon's wife had eluded him and disappeared, leading him to believe she had run off with his fortune. However, as Carson and Vernon travel together, they discover that Vernon's wife has committed suicide, and her death was not related to his wealth. The novel explores themes of greed, loss, and redemption, as the characters grapple with their past mistakes and attempt to move forward. Overall, Kit Carson, The Prince Of The Gold Hunters is a thrilling and thought-provoking tale of adventure and self-discovery set against the backdrop of the California Gold Rush.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
