Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Arizona Limited: Or Across the Continent Afoot
Monday morning, February 8th, at ten o'clock, I started the walk to New York City. The procession formed at the corner of Market, Geary and Kearney streets, the most prominent corner in San Francisco, where quite a crowd had collected.
I had engaged a fife and drum corps of four pieces to head the procession. Next came a jackass carrying a Sign advertising a horse and mule sale, for which I received the sum of seven dollars - nearly enough to pay the musicians. The walker brought up the rear in tourist regalia. I had selected for the trip a Khaki suit and hat and a pair of buckskin shoes.
