Incidents On Land And Water: Or Four Years On The Pacific Coast is a book written by Mrs. D. B. Bates and published in 1858. The book is a memoir of the author's experiences during her four-year stay on the Pacific Coast, which includes California and Oregon. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part describing her travels by land and the second part describing her travels by sea. In the first part, Mrs. Bates describes her journey from the East Coast to California, including her experiences in crossing the plains, encountering Native Americans, and settling in California. She also describes her travels throughout California, including her experiences in San Francisco, Sacramento, and the gold mines. In the second part of the book, Mrs. Bates describes her experiences traveling by sea along the Pacific Coast, including her travels to Oregon and Washington. She describes the natural beauty of the coast, the challenges of travel by sea, and her encounters with various people along the way. Throughout the book, Mrs. Bates provides vivid descriptions of the landscapes, people, and events she encounters, providing a unique perspective on life on the Pacific Coast during the mid-19th century. The book is a valuable historical document that provides insight into the experiences of women during this time period, as well as the social and cultural landscape of the West Coast.Being A Narrative Of The Ships Nonantum, Humayoon And Fanchon, Together With Many Startling And Interesting Adventures On Sea And Land.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
