IN THE SUMMER OF 1849 there was in California one J. Ross Browne representing the United States Postal Service. In the course of his official duties he made a trip by "mule power and foot power" from San Francisco to San Luis Obispo. The tale of this trip is authentic, unusual Californian: the narrative combines the outlandish happenings of the journey-including a brush with outlaws, and a death battle between a bull and a huge bear-with a reporter's penetrative observation on the rugged life in California a century ago. A Dangerous Journey was first published as two articles in Harper's Monthly for May and June, 1862. It was reissued in 1864 as a compilation, Crusoe's Island: A Ramble in the Footsteps of Alexander Selkirk with Sketches of Adventure in California and Washoe. This edition was first published in 1950. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
