From the introduction:
"This little volume is lovingly dedicated to Memories.
Memories of redwood and manzanita; memories of the dawn on far-flung summits; memories of the mountains of magic robed in the silver splendor of a summer moon.
Of Californian hillsides resplendent with the poppy's cloth of gold.
Of mountain meadows, exulting rivers, and chanting waterfalls.
Of kindly faces that were brightened by the camp-fire's ruddy glow. Of loving hearts that were-of loving hearts that are—in the cities by the Golden Gate."
