Excerpt from California: Our Western WonderlandIn the space of a few short days we intend to visit Mount Wilson, from whose summit we may look at the sun through a mirror telescope over six thousand feet above the level of the sea, or we may peer into the wonders of the ocean's bottom at Catalina, or, again, visit the Venice of the Pacific, admiring this copy of the famous Italian city visited on another Little Journey.Moreover, to visit Los Angeles late in January, and find balmy winds, flowers and clear blue skies, when the rest of the country is covered with ice and snow, will make every drop of roving blood in our veins urge. Us to wander.We are reminded of the poem we read somewhere at home and which has seemed so often to express our own sentiments on these trips of ours.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
