Painting a tale of pink houses, spiral staircases / Bowen, Jerry [730] [WAYITWAS-2007-730]

Book aimed to lure Easterners with fruit tales / Goerke-Shrode, Sabine [43] [WAYITWAS-2000-43]
Are the people in New Orleans, St. Louis, Chicago, New York, Boston and elsewhere, who have paid a dollar a pound for California cherries in April, or who in 1887 ate nearly 2,000 carloads of California peaches, pears, plums, apricots and grapes, curious to know whence a good part of these fruits come, or to learn the manner of their growth and the appearance of the country?
