This book takes you there through the eyes of Richard Dana, a young man who needed a break from school to regain his health. Dana's voyage to California in a sailing ship in the early 1800's brings the Romance of the age to life. Dana worked hard on and off the ship. The towns he saw in early California are now booming metropolises. This is a great California history book. It should be on everyone's library list.
