Historical photos, and the voices of Southern California Native American Elders help tell this history that’s been missing from the history books — until now.
Meet the author, Richard A. Hanks, at our reception, and the artist who did the book cover illustration, David Fairrington. Celebrate a book that tells Native Americans' roles in shaping Southern Californian — and national — history.

I am a Kenyan based in Nairobi and was happy to read about the Native Indians in Richard Hanks book. I think this story is missing in history books and should be provided for native Indians to know about the Mission Indians struggle for liberation and freedom.
