Editorial Reviews Product Description Traces the history of the gold rush in California including anecdotes about legendary characters and fabulous "strikes" of the mining camps. From the Inside Flap On January 24, 1848, James Marshall discovered a small nugget of gold in a stream near Sutter's Mill, California. Though he tried to keep it a secret, word spread through the country like wildfire. Before the year was out, the great American Gold Rush had begun. Here's a true-life story that re-creates a time when people from all walks of life dropped what they were doing and headed west with picks and shovels in the hope of finding riches--and added a brand-new chapter to our country's history. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
