Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Land of Gold: A Tale of 49, Illustrative of Early Pioneer Life in California, and Founded Upon Fact, Dedicated to California Pioneers This narrative, presented with many misgivings as to its acceptance by the general reader, and written during an illness of some months´ duration,is contributed to the file of literature for the purpose of keeping green the memory of the achievements of the early pioneers in California, and to show future generations what it cost to add what was once a wild and unbroken solitude to civilization and fame. In reviving scenes long since forgotten and re producing characters buried in eternal sleep, I am actuated by a desire to commemorate their deeds and to leave to their posterity a memorial, humble as it is, in respectful remembrance, to the bravery and persistent endurance which marked their tracks through the wildest regions of the Sierra Nevadas.
