When Fanny Osbourne summoned from California her famous—he had already published Treasure Island—but penniless fiancé, he could not fail to heed the call. The cheapest route from his Scottish home—his father wasn’t funding this adventure—was by cattle-boat and trans-continental railroad. Thus it was that one of the age’s most popular authors came to chronicle the great emigrant trek west.
