Book Description
History of early Spanish colonization of California. Historian Eldredge writes of the land march of Portola in 1769, culminating in the discovery of San Francisco Bay. E.J. Molera writes of Portola after he left California, and of the first ship to enter San francisco Bay (the packet boat San Carlos) under the command of Don Juan Manuel de Ayala. Included are Molera's translations of Ayala's report to the Viceroy of New Spain, Ayala's description of San Francisco Bay and Pilot de Canizares' report to Ayala of the reconnaissance of the Bay. Illustrations include the first survey and map of San Francisco Bay from a photograph of the Pilot's original drawing attached to the log of the San Carlos in Seville.
