Within five years, 250,000 miners dug up more than $200 million in gold—about $600 billion in today’s dollars.Gold offers a feel for what it was like to live through the heady days of the discovery and exploitation of gold in California in the mid-1800s through firsthand accounts, short stories, and tall tales written by the people who were there.
