Life was hard and rough in the days of the California gold rush.A few of the adventurers became rich, but most of them were bitterly disappointed.After having removed from their homes and after traveling the long, dangerous road to California, they found little or nothing.Some returned home.But many remained in California to work and to settle as ordinary citizens without the riches they had dreamed of.
