In 1848, James W. Marshall discovered gold at Sutter's Mill in California, setting off a gold rush that would continue until 1855. Thousands of people rushed to the area, hoping to find their fortunes. Who were these hopeful gold-seekers, and how far did they travel to get there? What risks did the miners face in their quest for gold? And what was the historical impact of this massive migration? Supporting state and national social studies standards, this book offers a clear, straightforward overview of the California Gold Rush--an essential topic for any student of U.S. history.
