Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Fifth Avenue to Alaska On the last day of May, 1883, in company with my father, I left Fifth Avenue for Alaska. We went by the Union Pacific Railroad to Ogden, and down to the Mormon city of Salt Lake, then back to Ogden, and by the Central, Pacific Road to San Francisco. After visiting the Yosemite Valley, and the North and South groves of giant trees in Calaveras County, San Rafael, and Menlo Park, we passed from San Francisco Bay through the Golden Gate, and up the Pacific Ocean by steamer to Astoria; thence up the Columbia River to the junction of the Willamette River, and up the Willamette to Portland; thence up the Willamette Valley by the Oregon and California Railroad, two hundred and sixty-two miles, to Glendale, its present terminus; then back to Portland, and through Puget Sound to Victoria, and on through the British waters to Alaska, reaching a latitude where there was no night, and where the sun rose some four hours after he set.
