Excerpt from The Everlasting Whisper: A Tale of the California WildernessII was springtime in the California Sierra. Never were skies bluer, never did the golden sun-flood steep the endless forest lands in richer life-giving glory. Ridge after ridge the mountains swept on and fell away upon one side until in the vague distances they sank to the monotonous level of the Sacramento Valley; down there it was already summer, and fields were hot and brown. Ridge after ridge the mountains stretched on the other side, rising steadily, growing ever more august and mighty and rocky; on their crests across the blue gorges the snow was dazzling white and winter held stubbornly on at altitudes of seven thousand feet. Thus winter, springtime, and ripe, f ruit-dmpping summer coexisted, touching fingers across the seventy miles that lie be tween the icy top of the Sierra and the burning lowlands.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
