Description

This book is about Grace, a young girl in the early 1900s when the automobile was a fairly new invention. Grace's curiosity gets the best of her and she sneaks into a doctor's car just to see what it would be like to sit in a car. She begins to daydream that she is taking a ride when suddenly the car door opens and the doctor drives off on his way to visit his patients, unaware that he has a passenger along. What happens after that makes for a very interesting and exciting adventure, not only for Grace and the doctor but also for her family when they discover she is missing.

Description


This story is retold from the diary of Jacob P. Prickett. When he was editor of a newspaper back  in the late 1800s he wrote the story in a series of serials and then compiled them together and pasted them into a book. The book was handed down in the family from generation to generation and tells a wonderful story about his trip as a young boy of 17, when he joined on with a wagon train going west to the Gold Rush. More than gold he was seeking excitement and adventure and he certainly found plenty of both. His other goal was to find his older brother, Thomas who was already in California.
