Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Life on the Plains and Among the Diggings: Being Scenes and Adventures of an Overland Journey to California; With Particular Incidents of the Route, Mistakes and Sufferings of the Emigrants, the Indian Tribes, the Present and the Future if the Great West Whether toiling through the deep sands of the barren desert, suffering from hunger and thirst; or weary and way-worn in climbing stupendous heights of the Sierra; whether surrounded by death and desolation on the Plains, or obtaining slight repose in the new cities of the Pacific - the reminiscences of our happy, school-boy days, too often intrude on my memory, to permit me to forget my old and well-tried friend of early years. And now that the dangers are passed - when we can sit side by side in "the old arm chairs," and trundle the hoop, or throw the ball, in fancy, and laugh over our boyish follies - these recollections of by-gones only cement the kindly feeling, which is rarely "of this world." It is only a slight testimonial of respect - indeed, were it an hundred fold greater, you would deserve it - but such as it is, my heart dedicates this little work to you.
