Grandpa from an old, wealthy very distinguished Spanish family hates him, his despised father eloped with the only daughter fleeing into the desert, pursued by a vengeful incensed Don Isidro, leaving the hacienda to kill the outrageous foreigner. However little Johannes must get to his grandfather's ranch near the sleepy town of Los Angeles, population 3,000 ( now 4 million) the only relative he will soon have left, but there are complications.
Toxic outlaws, unfriendly Indians and hot deserts, cold mountains, dangerous animals, bad weather a smorgasbord of death. As a boy of six traveling many weeks from New Mexico to California in the early 1840's, inside a single slow moving wagon with his brave dying father Zachary, a widower and a few others including the kind Miss Nesselrode, he will require continuous courage. Johannes Verne repeats often.I am Johannes Verne, and I am not afraid he needs to.
