Excerpt from The Journal of the Royal Horticultural Society of London, 1898, Vol. 22Geographically considered, California is one of the most favoured districts on the American continent. The Pacific Ocean washes its entire western shore. To the east lie several lesser ranges of mountains, backed up by the Rockies. The Oregon State line is a continuation of California northward, while to the south, genial and balmy Mexico abuts in such a friendly way that the traveller must needs inquire where one country ends and the other begins. Thus it is that, tempered by warm trade winds from the ocean, and lofty mountain ranges protecting us from the East - where the land is frozen in winter and scorched in summer - Nature has smiled upon us and placed every possible need of mankind within our reach.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
