Jim Sherbert will explore not only the discovery and mining operations in the Gold Rush era, but the impact of ‘gold-fever’ on the entire nation including the building of California as a major factor in America’s future. This includes the development of San Francisco from the small fishing village of Buena Vista to becoming one of America’s major cities . . . overnight!
