Blos, Joan W.

An orphan from Massachusetts finds her long-lost mother, now a wealthy landowner, in San Francisco's hurly-burly Gold Rush days. Blos turns this romantic premise into a credible journey of self-discovery for thirteen-year-old Eldora, whose letters to her cousin Sallie convey a good sense of daily life and the diversity of the people thrown together during this historic period.
