Autobiography and Reminiscence of Charles Nordhoff, (Deceased), 1901.

Autobiographies and Reminiscences of California Pioneers, p. 180-185, Vol. 4. This is a typed transcript of the member's autobiographical reminiscence created as an institutional record for the Society of California Pioneers. This reminiscence includes a reference to a photograph of the member in a set of bound volumes. It appears that the photographs in this set were dispersed throughout the regular photography collection, but the photographs referenced in the related materials may or may not be these same photographs. This biographical sketch contains some of Mr. Nordhoff's impressions of traveling west in his youth. The majority of the sketch details Mr. Nordhoff's professional accomplishments, though it does also provide some family history. A complete list of Mr. Nordhoff's publications taken from the "Author's Encyclopedias" is included.
