The Early Explorations of Father Garcés on the Pacific Slope (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Excerpt from The Early Explorations of Father Garcés on the Pacific Slope
SO badly indeed has this expedition been treated, and so little has its importance been recognized, that nothing will serve, even in a twenty-minute paper, short of a general restatement. A mere correction or supplement here and there, as in the case of the earlier journeys, will not suffice.
