Summary: "California Sketches, New Series" by O. P. Fitzgerald is a collection of literary sketches written in the late 19th century. The book depicts various characters and scenarios highlighting life in California during its pioneering days, often reflecting on the complexities of human nature, social issues, and the author's personal experiences in the newly settled regions of the West. The opening of this work introduces the reader to a nostalgic perspective on California's past, as the narrator reminisces about familiar faces from his youth and reflects on the challenges and joys of life in the burgeoning state.
