Description

The meeting of the General Convention of the Church in San Francisco, in 1901 gave the writer the long desired opportunity to visit the Pacific coast and see California which since the early discoveries has been associated with adventure and romance. Who is there indeed who would not travel towards the setting sun to feast his eyes on a land so famous for its mineral wealth, its fruits and flowers and its enchanting scenery from the snowy heights of the Sierras to the waters of the ocean first seen by Balboa in 1513 and navigated successively by Magalhaes and Drake, Dampier and Anson.
