California: An Englishman’s Impression of the Golden State.

By A. T. Johnson. With many illustrations. Demy 8vo, cloth gilt, 10s. 6d. net.

Mr. Johnson declares that California is a land “where wealth accumulates and men decay.” He notes the Californian’s egoism and distrust, and, without dwelling on the history or politics of the State, gives a record of observations of the simple and everyday things of life in the Far West.
