First published in 1994 and now available again, this Spanish
Borderlands classic recounts Jesuit colonization of the Old
California, the peninsula now known as Baja California. Jesuit
missionaries founded their first settlement in 1697 and
unintentionally created a Hispanic society that outlived the
missions and their Indian converts. The author brings to light
Jesuit missionization and culture, European-Indian contacts,
mission and presidio operations, family social life, the unique
peninsular economy, and the Jesuit expulsion. Four appendices
provide data on Spanish kings, royal officials, Jesuit personnel
and visitors, and founders of pre-1768 peninsular California
families.
