The Franciscans in California is a historical book written by Zephyrin Engelhardt and published in 1897. The book documents the arrival of the Franciscan missionaries in California during the 18th century and their efforts to establish missions throughout the region. The author provides a detailed account of the challenges faced by the Franciscans as they attempted to convert the native population to Christianity and create a new society based on European values. The book also explores the impact of the missions on the indigenous people and their culture, as well as the role of the Franciscans in the development of California’s economy and society. The Franciscans in California is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of California or the role of religion in shaping the state’s culture and identity.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
