Williams, with a handwritten note relating to the notorious stagecoach robber, Black Bart, who operated in Northern California and Southern Oregon from 1875 to 1883. Williams map of the west follows the transcontinental railroad west from Omaha to San Francisco, and along with a number of other early railroad lines in the west. The train stations along each route are showns and named, along with several proposed routes. The map is one of the best examples of the colorful and inviting maps used to promote tourist travel to the west. The present example of the map has been highly annotated, apparently by an early owner who travelled extensively along the West Coast and in California, including a contemporary brush with news of the notorious stage coach robber, Black Bart. The distances by Steamer along the Pacific are noted in blue pencil, showing distances between San Diego, San Pedro, Santa Barbara, San Luis Obispo, and Humboldt Bay.

  • 1 the NEW BLACK BART POETRY SOCIETY, Its Prehistory, History
    THE NEW BLACK BART POETRY SOCIETY, Its Prehistory, History, and Future delivered on October 3rd 2012 by Grand Poobah Emeritus Pat Nolan The story of the Black Bart Poetry Society begins almost a hundred and fifty years ago. On an early August day in 1877, a stage coach travelling from Fort Ross on the Pacific coast on its way to Guerneville, a lumber town on the lower Russian River, was held up by a masked man with a shotgun. Reaching the site of the hold-up later that day, the local sheriff and his posse discovered the strong box empty with the exception of a scrap of paper upon which was written a poem which read, in part, I’ve labored long and hard for bread For honor and for riches But on my corns too long you’ve tread You fine haired sons of bitches and was signed Black Bart, the PO8. I had come across this tidbit of local lore a little more than a hundred years after the actual event while researching material for a project upon which an artist friend and I had embarked. Unfortunately, the brilliant idea for an illustrated local history came to naught. The idea of a stage robbing poet, however, stuck with me. I had even made a note to myself that a poetry society founded on such a premise would be quite a lark. I happened to mention this idea to my friend and literary associate from Oakland, Steven Lavoie, on one of his infrequent visits to the redwood wilds along the Russian River.
