Description
This book offers a striking commentary on the role of accident versus circumstance in history.
When tuberculosis forced established Ohio attorney William Henry Gorrill to migrate to California, he left a successful career for uncertainty.
In California he was forced to rebuild both life and career.
His move to the west took him down a different career path.
Giving up the law for bridge building, he began to reestablish his life and co-founded the Pacific Bridge Company.
