Quotation from: The Valley of the Moon

Written by: Jack London


"My mother said there never was such a land for climate. How
wonderful it must have seemed to them after crossing the deserts
and mountains. They called it the land of milk and honey. The
ground was so rich that all they needed to do was scratch it,
Cady used to say."


"And wild game everywhere," Billy contributed. "Mr. Roberts, the
one that adopted my father, he drove cattle from the San Josquin
to the Columbia river. He had forty men helpin' him, an' all they
took along was powder an' salt. They lived off the game they
shot."
