In this rollicking reminiscence Sarah Bixby Smith tells of Los
Angeles when it was “a little frontier town” and “Bunker Hill
Avenue was the end of the settlement, a row of scattered houses
along the ridge.” She came there in 1878 at the age of seven from
the San Justo Rancho in Monterey County. Sarah recalls daily life
in town and at San Justo and neighboring ranches in the bygone era
of the adobes. Exerting a strong pull on her imagination, as it
will on the reader’s, is the story of how her family drove sheep
and cattle from Illinois to the Pacific Coast in the 1850s. The
daughter of a pioneering woolgrower, Sarah Bixby Smith became a
leading citizen of California.
