A Trip Across the Continent The Cranks Turn the World
The narrator stops at Yellington Nevada for a day at Brooks Hotel where Taylor Carson died in 1926. He recalls emigrants Westward, Mountain Meadows, and a Mormon-led massacre myth, then travels on from Reno to San Francisco. He notes Brooks Hotel tales, frontier hardships, and a Ford bus driver's grit as the world keeps turning.
