History gets wet in this episode. The date? January 24, 1848. The place? Along the banks of the American river in the Sierra Nevada foothills. Join us as we encounter con men, fortunes won and lost, California’s first millionaire, and an event that quite literally put California on the map. All this and more is told through the lens of veteran park historian and re-enactor Ed Allen who’s ability to tell a story is surpassed only by his enthusiasm for the past.
