Description:Excerpt from The Story of a Friendship: A California Reminiscence of Robert Louis StevensonStevenson spent only a few days in San Francisco, whence, to recover from the ill effects of the journey, he continued his way southward and camped out for a while in the mountains beyond Monterey. Here he remained several weeks quite ill. For two nights and a day he lay out under a tree in a kind of stupor, and there two frontiersmen in charge of a goat ranch found him and nursed him back to life. From this place he writes, I am now lying in an upper chamber with the clinking of goat bells in my ears, which proves to me that the goats have come home and it will soon be time to eat. After his illness he found his way down to Monterey. Very unlike the thriving little town of the present, intermingling its ruins with modern residences, was the Spanish town of that day as Stevenson found it, with two or three streets economically paved with sea sand.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
