It is not going to use exact Homeric verse because that is in all honesty beyond my ability. It will focus on California history, my own family history, especially in the late 19th century in Northern California. There will be historical references dating back to early colonial times and will go forward to World War Two and the aftermath of that. I hope to bring the bulky history to prohibition and World War One. The human drama focused on an actual relative who is second generation in my five generations in California. I hope to read Cannary Row before I write anything! And Roughing It!
