"This is the story of the making...and the forging...of California...when men chose gold or God...the sword or the Cross!"
In 1769, a Spanish expedition to California seeks to conquer the land and discover its famed gold treasures while missionaries aim to gain new converts and establish a network of Catholic missions.
