This year‚ golf lost “one of the greats” Arnold Palmer‚ a man whose humility‚ integrity‚ and equity overshadowed even his immense talent. About ten years ago‚ I had the chance to meet this legend; at the time‚ he was merely a man who pushed the boundaries in his sport.

California History Gold Rush Essay I disagree with the quote stating that the Gold Rush had relatively small impact on the history of California.
