Seller's Description:
First edition. One of 325 copies of the Deluxe Edition, printed on rag paper, numbered and signed by the editor. Edited with an introduction by Doyce B. Nunis. xxxii, 246pp. Frontis portrait, maps, illustrations, folding map, facsimiles (some folding). Extensive chapter notes and bibliography, index. Gilt-lettered and decorated cloth. A very fine copy with lightly faded publisher's slipcase. Father-in-law of Gertrude Atherton, namesake of Atherton, California (San Mateo county), etc. Atherton was a young man from New England in the early 1830's and an employee of a Santa Barbara merchant which brought him into intimate contact with the administrators of the secularized missions, the native inhabitants and the growing number of American settlers and visitors. He vividly recorded much of the political turmoil, civil-religious conflict, mushrooming trade, and foreign penetration of early Mexican California. His diary of those three years is filled with personal assessments and important happenings. Printed by the Ward Ritchie Press.
