The work will appeal to history enthusiasts and to a broad audience
for information about 'manifest destiny' and the roots of modern
California. If a reader's background rests on the general
literature there may be many surprises. For example, the initiative

'peculiar institution, ' and his Archy decision essentially
reversed California's slide to being a de facto slave state
