Discovery Of Gold: Accelerated California's Drive For Statehoood
[ send me this paper ]

One of the watershed moments that all but sealed the future of California's statehood was when President Polk's State of the Union address painted such a rosy picture of what was transpiring with regard to California's ongoing mineral wealth that it influenced people from all walks of life to relocate and further enrich the state's economic, social and political pool.
