What people are saying - Write a reviewReview: The Second Gold Rush: Oakland and the East Bay in World War IIUser Review - Patrick - GoodreadsKind of textbooky but otherwise fascinating account of the east bay during world war II. Clearly shows the historical roots of today's problems of poor and disenfranchised neighborhoods. Also sadly how racist our area was in the 50s. Read full review Related books
