Philip Augustine Roach, 1820-1889: California Pioneer
""Philip Augustine Roach, 1820-1889: California Pioneer"" is a biography written by Peter Thomas Conmy. The book tells the story of Philip Augustine Roach, who was born in Ireland in 1820 and immigrated to the United States in the mid-1800s. Roach eventually settled in California, where he became a successful businessman and prominent member of the community. The book chronicles Roach's life, from his early years in Ireland to his journey to America and his eventual settlement in California. It explores his experiences as a pioneer in the rapidly changing West, including his involvement in the Gold Rush and his role in the development of the state's transportation infrastructure. Through Roach's story, the book also provides insight into the broader history of California and the United States during the 19th century. It touches on topics such as immigration, politics, and social change, and shows how Roach's life was shaped by these larger forces. Overall, ""Philip Augustine Roach, 1820-1889: California Pioneer"" is a detailed and engaging biography that offers a unique perspective on the history of California and the American West.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
