Excerpt from Anza's California Expeditions, Vol. 4: Font's Complete Diary of the Second Anza Expedition; Translated From the Original Spanish ManuscriptFont is entitled to all the more credit from the fact that he was ill during most of the expedition. He was under the weather when he left Horcasitas. When he reached the Pimas he began to have chills and fever which troubled him all the way down the Gila River. Much of the time his life was made miserable by sores inside his mouth. It is not strange, therefore, that Font was pessimistic and irritable, that he found Indians disgusting, that he was not always pleased with the weather or the country. Over which he traveled, or even that he sometimes complained of Anza. But in spite of his illness and his temperament, or because of them, he wrote a superb diary - one of the best in all Western Hemisphere history, it is safe to say. In his official journal he faithfully described the itinerary, the natural features of the country, the Indians, and the Spanish establishments passed through. And then, in the private diary, he added to these official things all the gossip of the trail.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Mission as a Frontier Institution in the Spanish-American ColoniesOne of the marvels in the history of the modern world is the way in which that little Iberian nation, Spain, when most of her blood and treasure were absorbed in European wars, with a hand ful of men took possession of the Caribbean archipelago, and' by rapid yet steady advance spread her culture, her religion, her law, and her language over more than half of the two American continents, where they still are dominant and still are secure - in South America, Central America, and a large fraction of North America, for fifty million people in America to-day are tinged with Spanish blood, still speak the Spanish language, still worship at the altar set up by the Catholic kings, still live under laws essentially Spanish, and still possess a culture largely inherited from Spain.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important                 historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to                 apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to                 sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and                 does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is                 culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally                 enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or                 missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the                 original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it                 back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with                 access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional                 imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that                 intended by the original publisher.
