Paperback. Condition: New. This is the story of James Capen Adams, a mountain man born in 1807 who brought grizzlies to the city of San Francisco, and then New York, for exhibition. But Adams was not simply a showman; he had a deeper connection with the animals. While living in the mountains with the grizzlies, he tamed and trai…ned them. He was even able to use the great bears as willing pack animals. After his return to the city, he lived amongst his animals and slept on a buffalo robe or bear-skin, many times in the very exhibit hall in which he held his shows. In The Adventures of James Capen Adams, Theodore H. Hittell provides us with the transcription of this fascinating mountain man's first-hand account of his wild life and times.

Contact seller4-star seller[CALIFORNIA]. First edition thus. 12mo. Tan cloth, titles on paper label affixed to the front cover, [6], 15 pp. California Historical Society Special Publication No. 38. Printed by Roger Levenson of the Tamalpais Press, Berkeley, California. The story of the first ship built in California. "In 1719, due to the difficulties in o…btaining supplies from the mainland, Father Ugarte decided to build a vessel on the Baja peninsula. With the help of an English carpenter named William Strafford and the collaboration of the Cochimí indigenous people, they used wood from the güéribo trees (Populus brandegeei) that grew in the mountains near Mulegé. The sloop, named El Triunfo de la Cruz (The Triumph of the Cross), was launched on November 14, 1719, and became an essential means of communication and transporting supplies between the missions on the peninsula and the mainland." Fine, bright copy that lacks the dust jacket.
