Over the purple hills
Caroline M. Nichols Churchill (b. 1833) first came to California from Chicago in 1870. Over the purple hills (1881) continues her tales of California begun in "Little Sheaves" (1874), beginning with an 1874 rail trip from San Francisco to Bartlett's Springs, Stockton, Napa, and Lake Tahoe.

Throughout she shows a sharp eye for matters of interest to women and tourists.
