Nevada Statehood and the Comstock Boom Chronicle
The piece traces Nevada's western history from early explorations by Father Gates and Peter Ogden to Fremont's 1848 crossing and Mexico's 1848 cession. It notes the Comstock Lode discovery in 1859, Nevada becoming a separate territory in 1861, and attaining statehood as the 36th state in 1864 with a large area but low population, followed by 19th century mining-related declines.
