"The Missions and Missionaries of California" offers a comprehensive account of the establishment and operation of the California missions. Written by Zephyrin Engelhardt, a prominent historian of the Catholic Church in California, this volume delves into the religious, social, and political aspects of the mission system, examining the roles of the missionaries and their interactions with the indigenous populations. Engelhardt provides a detailed narrative of the founding of each mission, the challenges faced by the missionaries, and the impact of their work on the landscape and culture of California.
