Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Historical Sketch of Los Angeles County, California: From the Spanish Occupancy, by the Founding of the Missions San Gabriel Archangel, September 8, 1771, to July 4, 1876 The success which 'crowned the labors of the Jesuit Missionaries in Peninsular California, stimulated the Franciscan Order of the Roman Catholic Church in Mexico, to attempt a like work along the shore of the Pacific Ocean from the Peninsula northerly. This enterprise was approved of and assisted by the Government of New Spain, and was also fostered and encouraged by zealous Christians and philanthropists Of Mexico, who donated large sums of money and estates to aid in its prosecution. The first expedition, sent to this new field of labor by the College of San. Fernando, was in three detachments - two of which were to proceed up by land over the Peninsula, and the other, in three vessels, to go by water. Each detachment was accompanied by a small military force, which force numbered, in all, four companies. That portion of the expedition which went by water, embarked at San Blas, and, after calling at Loreto, a penin sular port, sailed from thence for San Diego and Monterey. These vessels, the San Carlos, the San Antonio, and the San Joseph, were the transports of the detachment sent by water. Two of these vessels, called packet boats, only reached San Diego; the other, the San Joseph, was never heard from after leaving Loreto. The San Antonio arrived at San Diego on the 11th of April, and the San Carlos on the lat of May, 1769. The two detachments by land reached San Diego, one May 14th, and the other July lst, of the same year. The land detachments brought two hundred head of neat cattle, a number of horses and mares, sheep, goats, and hogs, with which to stock the country the were on their way to subdue and occupy.

Download or read book The Hispano Homeland written by Richard L. Nostrand and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 1996-09-01 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Richard L. Nostrand interprets the Hispanos’ experience in geographical terms. He demonstrates that their unique intermixture with Pueblo Indians, nomad Indians, Anglos, and Mexican Americans, combined with isolation in their particular natural and cultural environments, have given them a unique sense of place - a sense of homeland. Several processes shaped and reshaped the Hispano Homeland. Initial colonization left the Hispanos relatively isolated from cultural changes in the rest of New Spain, and gradual intermarriage with Pueblo and nomad Indians gave them new cultural features. As their numbers increased in the eighteenth century, they began to expand their Stronghold outward from the original colonies.

Download or read book Los Angeles written by Anton Wagner and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 2022-07-12 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the first time, Anton Wagner’s groundbreaking 1935 book that launched the study of Los Angeles as an urban metropolis is available in English. No book on the emergence of Los Angeles, today a metropolis of more than four million people, has been more influential or elusive than this volume by Anton Wagner. Originally published in German in 1935 as Los Angeles: Werden, Leben und Gestalt der Zweimillionenstadt in Südkalifornien, it is one of the earliest geographical investigations of a city understood as a series of layered landscapes. Wagner demonstrated that despite its geographical disadvantages, Los Angeles grew rapidly into a dominant urban region, bolstered by agriculture, real estate development, transportation infrastructure, tourism, the oil and automobile industries, and the film business. Although widely reviewed upon its initial publication, his book was largely forgotten until reintroduced by architectural historian Reyner Banham in his 1971 classic Los Angeles: The Architecture of Four Ecologies. This definitive translation is annotated by Edward Dimendberg and preceded by his substantial introduction, which traces Wagner's biography and intellectual formation in 1930s Germany and contextualizes his work among that of other geographers. It is an essential work for students, scholars, and curious readers interested in urban geography and the rise of Los Angeles as a global metropolis.
Download or read book California Conquered written by Neal Harlow and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 1989-04-14 with total page 526 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book began as a venture to collect official and unofficial documents relating to the interval of American military rule. There proved to be thousands, the writings of Presidents, executive officers, and congressmen, naval and military personnel, governors, settlers, and citizens-routine, familiar, wheedling, seductive, blustering, commanding. As the quantity grew, they seemed eager to be heard. But the documents exhibit the traits of their makers. Containing neither the whole truth nor nothing but the truth, they offer many-sided versions of what people believed or wanted others to accept; they must be taken with a grain of salt. Long, sometimes garbled, and always incomplete, the record requires assessment, a referee to appraise the evidence and form his own imperfect conclusions. And any curious or dissenting reader may, by consulting the numerous cited sources, make his own interpretations. References, whenever possible, have been made to materials in some printed form, leading an inquirer to a vast array of historical evidence. Everything herein happened, or so the record tells, and if an assumption has been made, it is that men, issues, and events can be interesting in their own right, without exaggeration. "To exaggerate," a knowing urban child recently observed, "means you put in something to make it more exciting" (Los Angeles Times, Dec. 10, 1978).
