Glimpses of hungryland
Walker, W. S.First published 18801 editions
W. S. Walker left Mason City, Illinois, for New New York City and his first trip to California (via the Isthmus) in 1864. Glimpses of hungryland (1880) describes his stay in the West: a series of odd jobs in Sonoma County, gold prospecting at Park's Bar on the Yuba River, and a revival camp meeting near Healdsburg. In 1879, he takes his family from Omaha to California by rail on the "Emigrant Train" and gives a tourist's account of San Francisco.
