Rebecca Yerger, Memory Lane : Napa County s literary legacy | History

The literary sons and daughters of Napa County are as diverse as the subject matter of their works. Some of these authors were born here while others adopted Napa County as their temporary or permanent home. Regardless of their residency status, these individuals have enriched the Napa County cultural heritage. One of the area’s first authors was James Clyman, a frontier scout and pioneer. During the U.S. westward expansion, Clyman kept a journal to detail his experiences throughout the western territories. This chronicle became highly regarded by historians and scholars alike as a factual account of that expansion period. In later years, Clyman wrote poetry inspired by the beauty of Napa County. In 1881, Clyman died at his Napa area home at the age of 90.

info@robertlouisstevensonmemorialcottage.org Mrs. Fanny Osbourne, 34, had thrown convention to the winds in the summer of 1875, when she announced that she was leaving her cheating husband, Sam Osbourne, in California, and taking their three children to Europe for a dramatic change. Such behavior by a woman was frowned upon in the 19th century more than today, and Fanny got a lot of pushback from all sides. But she was one strong-willed and determined woman who was already engaged in revolutionary behavior like rolling and smoking cigarettes and carrying a gun. Books written about Fanny because she had the courage to take the leap have in recent years made her a kind of cult figure among women. This phenomenon has been observed at the Robert Louis Stevenson Memorial Cottage in Saranac Lake, NY, since 1995 with the appearance of A Romance of Destiny by Alexandre Lapierre, and again with Under the Wide and Starry Sky by Nancy Horan, 2014.

info@robertlouisstevensonmemorialcottage.org Virginia City, “Bonanza” country, is where the Cartwright brothers Adam, Hoss and Little Joe go to do business and get in trouble in TV Land. The famous Comstock Lode made Virginia City the biggest silver mining operation in the USA for much of the 19th century, and so it attracted a big enough population to support 120 saloons and 800 prostitutes, with an average consumption of 16,000 quarts of whiskey a week. That spiked dramatically when they threw the biggest, most drunkest celebration ever on account of the end of the Civil War. It lasted over a week, and the agony of the hangover was intensified by the news of Lincoln’s assassination.
