1923. The book begins: The land of El Carmelo, with its mystic
surroundings, nestles in the heart of a pine forest on the
California coast near the historical pueblo of Monterey. It was
here that California was born to civilization; here the Indians
bowed to the humanizing influences of the Padres and learned the
ways of progress; here men had lived and loved and fiercely hated.
On the balconies of their adobe dwellings during the later Spanish
possession and the early Mexican acquisition, flashing dark-eyed
senoritas had throbbed to the rhythm of the guitar strings swept by
the soft, pulsating fingers of the gallant caballeros.
