Connect with the people responsible for crafting California's origin. Uncover the untold history of the political, religious, and emotional saga of the Spanish people who claimed Alta California.

California book two of the series continues the fascinating account that chronicles the suspenseful clashes of the political architects who planned the expedition. Including a detailed narrative of the explorers' grueling journey to the unsettled land and the Indians resistance to their arrival that challenged their culture on the early American western frontier.

Travel back in time to 1767, an era of ignorance and enlightenment. Rub shoulders with Spanish royalty and revel in their debaucheries. Venture aboard the ships that brought Old World values to the New World. Trek with the priests and soldiers who sought to tame the strangers they encountered during their "Sacred Expedition." Meet the indigenous people who resisted Spanish incursions.

Calafia and California are the most complete accounts ever told of the colonization of California. These two books are a planned series about the people who made the Golden State today.
