To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Mackay and Mr. J. G. Fair, gentlemen who, although they probably do not know how many millions of dollars they are worth, are as energetic and attentive to business as if they were struggling men. There is perhaps no industry whose methods and appliances are generally so rude and unscientific as those of mining, and it is therefore all the more a delightful surprise to the engineer, to find how royally his craft is entertained by the silver kings on the remote hill-sides of the Sierra Nevada.
S...AN FRANCISCO.
CHAPTER XXII.
SAN FRANCISCO.
August 20-31.
Returning from Virginia City we slept for a night at Truckee, a station on the Central Pacific Railroad, fourteen miles from the summit of the Sierra Nevada. Here the night was cold and frosty, but the sun rose hot and bright as usual. The Truckee river runs out of Lake Tahoe, and, flowing eastward through a deep picturesque canon, is finally lost in the sands of the desert basin.
The railway follows its course to " Summit," the ascent beginning at Wadsworth, where, as already mentioned, the alkali plains are exchanged for mountain slopes, diversified by streams and scattered groups of pines.
