About this product

Product Information

Nellie Van de Grift Sanchez (1856-1935) was the younger sister of Robert Louis Stevenson's wife Fanny and at one time, prior to her own marriage, acted as Stevenson's amanuensis. Fanny died in 1914 and her sister published a biography entitled The Life of Mrs Robert Louis Stevenson in 1920. This work, published in 1914 and illustrated throughout, delves into the history behind place names in California, derived from both the Native Americans and early Spanish explorers, and offers an insight into their meanings. .
