I thought the story of the gold rush would be told best wordlessly, and mostly conveyed via images and comparisons...so I sketched out an outline for a six-page story and got started. Throughout the story, I tried to show the same places and settings a various stages of their development, as you'll see as the story progresses.
A big tip of the hat goes to my pal Galen Showman, who pointed out and provided many sources of reference...one thing about working with McGraw was that I was often left to my own devices when it came to research, but to their credit, they usually "took my work for it", so to speak.

I know that they were crazy about it. But one thing that the history doesn't talk about it. It is that some of them died because of the mercury that they used to split gold from other components.
