"The true value of the book is in the glimpse of what it was like to come upon, talk and travel with a wide range of Westerners, for Lummis was a born reporter who, indeed, ended his three-thousand-mile tramp by walking into theLos Angeles Daily Newsand starting work as city editor."-English Westerners'' Tally Sheet., "Lummis walked from Ohio to California in 1884, and in the journal he published in 1892 he calls his saga ''the simple story of joy on legs.''

Synopsis
When young Charles Lummis heard about a job in the small town of Los Angeles more than a century ago, he walked all the way to it--across the plains, up Pike's Peak, down Devil's Gorge, through the Grand Canyon, over the desert. It was, by conservative estimate, one of the grandest hikes in American history. With no reason to be modest, Lummis called his "unpretentious" account of it "the wayside notes of a happy vagabonding."
