A Golden State oldie.
Oscar Wilde’s long and eventful journey to California in 1882.
Those who have been following my verification of Oscar Wilde’s lecture tour of North America in 1882 will know that we have reached California.
Oscar Wilde’s journey to California was a significant event in itself as it constituted his longest period of continuous traveling—4 days and 4 nights—incorporating some 1867 miles and over 200 station stops.

Trace Wilde’s Journey to California, discover the route, and learn about his adventures and life on board the train.
