Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from California Romantic and Resourceful: A Plea for the Collection, Preservation and Diffusion of Information Relating to Pacific Coast History
T his plea is an arrow shot into the air. It is the result of an address which I made at Colton Hall, in M onterey, upon the celebration of Admis sion Day, 1908, and another which I made at a luncheon meeting of the Commonwealth Club, at the Palace Hotel, San Francisco, on ?pril 12, 1913. These addresses have been amplified and revised, and certain statistics contained in them have been brought down to the end oj'1913. In this form they go forth to a larger audience, in the earnest hope that they may meet a hind reception, and some where find a generous friend.
