Bodie: A City of Abandoned Dreams

The Gold Rush was founded on a promise of prosperity, but too often left only ruins behind. Such was the case for William S. Bodie, who founded the ghost town we know today as Bodie.

Featuring interviews with Bodie Foundation executive director Brad Sturdivant, Park Ranger Mike Rominger and Professor of Geology Dydia Delyser.
