The romanticized Gold Rush era of the mid-19th century, while offering the promise of western riches, also left many ghost towns in its wake. This eight-part series explores these left-behind regions — including those in California, Colorado, Arizona, Nevada, and the Dakotas — and features recognizable characters and institutions such as Bill Cody, Wild Bill Hickok, Wyatt Earp, Doc Holliday, and Wells Fargo. 1 hr. 42 min.
