A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Ordinarily, a book of this kind might be expected to find its way before the public without the formality of a preface or introductory remarks, but as this book was not written with a view to its general publication, and is now submitted to the public for what value and interest it may have, at the urgent request of friends acquainted with the undertaking, I feel that I should place upon these friends the responsibility for any seeming assurance on my part in presenting the book. A life experience of sixty-five years in California, connected as it must be with the pioneer days of the state, could hardly be otherwise than fraught with incidents and events of interest and observations of historical value. Such a life was my fortune to experience. Upon reaching that period of life when man does not look so much upon the future as upon the past, I was prompted in one of my reminiscent moods to reduce to writing my recollections, experiences, and observations for the sixty and odd years, the most of which were passed in Central California, solely for the perusal and benefit of my four sons. The manuscript was completed three years ago. I felt that they would not only be interested in the activities of my career and such matter of historical value that came under my observation during this long period of years, but also they might derive some profit by having laid before them the experiences and the mistakes, as well as any possible successes of my lifetime.
