The long car carried the men down into the depths of the Empire Gold Mine outside of Grass Valley, California. The year is 1850. These men are working to find and extract gold from the hard quartz rock in the Foothill Mountains of California. The tunnel that they were descending down wasn't very high, so they had to watch their heads. There they were, a line of men, one seated behind the other, moving slowly down a track. One half mile (about 2500 feet) above them, their coworkers worked with a large motor that released the tension on a length of rope and thus lowered them further and further down into the black depths below. They still had another 2500 feet to travel before they reached the bottom. And so begins the fascinating history of the Gold Rush! If you think the gold rush was all about money and getting rich, think again! Most people didn't get rich at all. In this book, just for kids, you will find out what really happened during the gold rush.

Long ago in the Jurassic age, 150 million years before the present day, a strange and wonderful assortment of dinosaurs lived on Earth. This was tens of millions of years before the time of dinosaur “superstars” like triceratops and tyrannosaurus, but there were plenty of famous, interesting animals alive at that time, too. Stegosaurus was one of these – a bus sized creature with two rows of plates sticking up along its back like the frill on the spine of a legendary dragon. Besides the rows of plates on its back, stegosaurus had big spikes on its tail that look a lot like the barbs on a medieval knight's mace.
