The Silverado Squatters (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
THE
SILVERADO SQUATTERS.
The scene of this little book is on a high mountain. There are, indeed, many higher ; there are many of a nobler outline. It is no place of pilgrimage for the summary globe-trotter; but to one who lives upon its sides, Mount Saint Helena soon becomes a centre of interest. It is the Mont Blanc of one section of the Californian Coast Eange, none of its near neighbours rising to one-half its altitude. It looks down on much green, intricate country. It feeds in the spring-time many splashing brooks. Prom its summit
