The book is based on a manuscript written by an unknown author in the late 18th century, which was discovered in the Bancroft Library. The author was likely a Franciscan missionary who lived among the California Indians and documented their customs, beliefs, and daily life. The book is edited and annotated by Alfred Louis Kroeber, a renowned anthropologist who specialized in Native American cultures. Kroeber provides context and analysis for the manuscript, helping readers understand the significance of the information it contains. The book covers a wide range of topics, including the social organization of California Indian tribes, their religious practices, and their interactions with the Spanish colonizers.
