Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Gabriel Conroy Bohemian Papers, Stories of and for the Young, Vol. 1 of 2 Snow. Everywhere. As far as the eye could reach - fifty miles, looking southward from the highest white peak, - filling ravines and gulches, and dropping from the walls of canons in white shroud-like drifts; fashioning the dividing ridge into the likeness of a monstrous grave, hiding the bases of giant pines, and completely covering young trees and larches; rimming with porcelain the bowl-like edges of still, cold lakes, and undulating in motionless white billows to the edge of the distant horizon. Snow lying everywhere over the California Sierras on the 15th day of March, 1848, and still falling. It had been snowing for ten days: snowing in finely granulated powder, in damp, spongy flakes, in thin, feathery plumes; snowing from a leaden sky steadily; snowing fiercely, shaken out of purple-black clouds in white flocculent masses, or dropping in long level lines, like white lances from the tumbled and broken heavens. But always silently! About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
