Английская Википедия:Albert S. Evans
Albert S. Evans was an American explorer and writer. Prior to 1856, he lived in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and worked as a broker.[1] He lived in Chicago and worked for many years at the Daily Journal. Evans arrived in San Francisco in 1861, began working as a journalist for the Morning Call[2] and served on the staff of the Governor of California during the Civil War.[1]
He published two travelogues, Our Sister Republic: A Gala Trip through Tropical Mexico in 1869 - 1870, (1870) and Á La California: Sketches of Life in the Golden State (1873). The books were published by A. L. Bancroft of San Francisco, the publishing partner and brother of Hubert Howe Bancroft.[3] In 1863, Evans became local editor for some years of The Daily Alta California in San Francisco, and continued in that capacity for several years.[2] He lived in the city for 12 years, and he famously feuded with Mark Twain when both were in the city.[3] Evans died 22 October 1872,[4] a passenger on the steamship Missouri, when it burned at sea.[5]
