Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - An engaging and provocative history of John Thomas Geary, a London lawyer who left everything he knew to travel to the American West in the 1850s. Geary went from a life of privilege and ease in Victorian England to a rough-and-tumble experience settling the unexplored Utah Territory. This biography carefully documents Geary's life as he learns difficult lessons and overcomes many obstacles. 'John Thomas Geary stood at the crossroads, looking toward the mountains. The landscape couldn't be more different than his British birthplace and he paused to find a connection to this bleak view. Utah Territory in the dead of winter did not feel welcoming. But he had made his choice. It took John and his wife, Sophia, the better part of three years to make it across the American plains to Great Salt Lake City and he intended to make it his home. When John arrived in Utah in December, 1856 he was 33 years old with two small children. John and Sophia came to the remote desert for religious reasons - they were Mormon emigrants following their prophet. They left England and their extended families behind, knowing they would never see them again. It seemed both a privilege and an immeasurable price to pay for their beliefs.'.

2pp, 12mo. In fair condition, on aged and worn paper. Folded once. In what is a quite unusual and somewhat flirtatious response to a fan letter, he thanks her for her 'kind letter about my books', adding: 'it is pleasing to know that they cheer you when things go wrong; and I trust that the next time you get lost you will have one with you to cheer your solitary way.' He continues: 'It is evident that if they have this agreeable effect on you that, though there may be some difference in our ages, there can be very little in our spirits; & I should be charmed if, next time you are in London, you would come to see me in the morning.' He explains that he writes in the morning, and is 'always grateful to any one who interrupts me and prevents me from injuring my constitution by industrious excess' For the recipient Barbara Kaye [Barbara Kenrick Gowing] (1908-1998), writer, bookseller and wife of Percy Muir, see her obituary by Nicolas Barker in the Independent, 12 March 1998.
