The history of California in the mid-19th century comes alive in
this captivating historical novel. Garnet Cameron, a fashionable
young lady of New York, is leading a neat, proper life, full of
elegant parties and polite young men, yet the prospect of actually
marrying any of them appalls her. Yearning for adventure, she
instead marries Oliver Hale, a wild trader who is about to cross
the mountains and deserts to an unheard-of land called California.
During Garnet and Oliver's honeymoon in New Orleans, she meets a
dance-hall performer on the lam who calls herself Florinda Grove
and is also traveling to California. Along the Jubilee Trail,
Garnet and Florinda meet kinds of men never known to them before,
and together they make their painstaking way over the harsh trail
to Los Angeles, learning how to live without compromise and
discover both true friendship and true love.
