""Starr King in California"" is a biographical work by William Day Simonds that chronicles the life of Thomas Starr King, a prominent Unitarian minister who played a significant role in California's history during the mid-19th century. The book explores King's early life, his rise to prominence as a preacher and lecturer, and his pivotal role in the state's politics and culture during the tumultuous years leading up to the Civil War. Simonds also delves into King's personal life, including his relationships with his family, friends, and colleagues, and his enduring legacy as a champion of civil rights and social justice. Through detailed research and vivid storytelling, ""Starr King in California"" provides a fascinating glimpse into the life of a remarkable figure whose influence continues to be felt today.This last criticism invites us to notice--all too briefly--a phase of King's experience in New England fitting him most admirably for the larger work he was to do on the Pacific Coast. From 1840 to 1860 the Lyceum flourished in the United States as never before or since. Large numbers of lecture courses, extending even to the small cities and towns, were liberally patronized and generously supported. In many communities this was the one diversion and the one extravagance.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
