California Vieja by Phoebe S Kropp

Reveals that the origins of Spanish influences in Southern California were not solely rooted in the Spanish colonial period, but arose in the early twentieth century, when Anglo residents recast the days of missions and ranchos as an idyllic golden age of pious padres, placid Indians, dashing caballeros and sultry senoritas.
"Excellent and well-researched.. Enthralling." Folklore
Phoebe S. Kropp is Assistant Professor of History at the University of Pennsylvania.
