This week Lorna talks us through the scramble for gold on America's west coast in the late 1840s. Thousands of Americans headed west to try their luck at striking gold.
We discuss the main players, as well as the impact of immigration, the big winners of the rush, and even a new Californian delicacy. As always we are full of half remembered facts and anecdotes. Enjoy!
