It's Not About This
So I don't go off-topic on my research, I remind myself that:
It's not about Indians of the East CoastIt's not about how farmers would grow their crops in California
It's not about how Indians would hunt
It's not about how miners built their homes
It's not about hotels or banks
It's not about how people rode their horses or wagons
It's not about clothing or beaver skins
It's not about how people would make paper and sell it
It's not about the big fires of the time
It's not about how banks operated
It's not about how they built buildings
It's not about how the miners mined their gold
It's not about taxes or government
It's not about the Mexican & American war over California
