Signed by the Author. An uncommon book. "This is God's country, and ours. Dig in and take over!" With that, Thelma Honn's grand-dad halted his emigrant train near the foot of Mount Lassen. One generation later, the lava-ridged countryside had been transformed into a settlement called Hat Creek, and Thelma's widowed father was raising dairy cows and three children. This is Thelma Honn Morri's story of the two mountains in her life: a rumbling volcano, and the towering gentle man who was her father." --Back cover. // Women; Biographies, California Lassen County, Lassen County (Calif.)
