Gold Rush Of 1849,The (Spotlight on American History)

8:00 pm 10 January 2013
The Gold Rush of 1849 - Arthur Blake A semi complete summary of the California Gold Rush for young learners. Talks about Sutter's mill, the spread of the news and finally the great exodus from all over the world. Sugar coats the down sides of this era - but most likely is appropriate for this age group.Very easy to read and good imagery and side stories.
