Summary: Adventures of Jack and Praiseworthy in 1849
Comment: Have you ever read a book that will keep you reading for hours? Well if you have, I bet you read this book. This is such and exciting book, you will want to read it over and over.
By the Great Horn Spoon by Sid Fleishman is a book about the adventures of Praiseworthy, the butler, and Jack who are searching for gold to save their Aunt Arabela's fortune. In the beginning Jack and Praiseworthy are stowaways on Captain Swain's ship, the Lady Wilma. They set sail for California and end up in a race with the Sea Raven. They meet up with lots of interesting characters. One of which is Cut-Eye Higgins who is a theif. Once they arrive in San Francisco their adventures continue.

Summary: why by the great horn spoon is great but bad
Comment: By the Great Horn Spoon! is an OK book. If you have read The 13th Floor and hated the way it ended then you will also hate this book. The book ends suddenly with an ending which is not exciting. I suggest reading Bandits
Moon. It is also about the gold rush,but it has a great ending. Sid Fleichman, the author, has a great way with words.

Summary: Gold Rush Fever
Comment: By the Great Horn Spoon was by far the most enjoyable social science book I have read. The book truly captures the the spirit of what life (Gold Rush life) was like in those days. The author tells this story with great enthusiasm and descriptive deatil; the reader automatically feels as if they are there traveling along with the main characters. I beleive that the use of this book in any classroom with help students gain a better understanding of what "gold rushers" went through to keep their dreams alive.
