Description: "Adobe Days," by Sarah Bixby Smith, with the elaborate subtitle: "Being the Truthful Narrative of the Events in the Life of a California Girl on a Sheep Ranch and in El Pueblo de Nuestra Senora de Los Angeles While It Was Yet a Small and Humble Town; Together with an Account of How Three Young Men from Maine in 1853 Drove Sheep & Cattle Across the Plains, Mountains, & Deserts from Illinois to the Pacific Coast, and the Strange Prophecy of Admiral Thatcher about San Pedro Harbor." With an introduction by Robert Ernest Cowan. Speaking of strange, there are some big mysteries about this book. It appears to have been rebound, because I couldn't find any like it on the web, and because it came from estate with many other rebound books. Stranger yet, the Table of Contents page has a list of illustrations — but there are no illustrations in the book. I can't explain it, but I do know that this is a nice, clean copy of a memorable book about the early history of California. With index, 148 pages. I pack carefully and ship promptly, free via USPS Media Mail.
