This appears to be a booklet put together in order to generate public interest in Frances Fairchild's proposed revision of Thomas J. Schoonover's The life and times of Gen. John A. Sutter. Some pages are reprints from the 1907 edition of Schoonover's work. Pages [23-29] contain testimonials about Frances Fairchild by noted Californians. A finished book does not seem to have been published.
