Celebrating the 150th birthday of the state of California offers the opportunity to reexamine the founding of modern California, from the earliest days through the Gold Rush and up to 1870. In this four-volume series, published in association with the California Historical Society, leading scholars offer a contemporary perspective on such issues as the evolution of a distinctive California culture, the interaction between people and the natural environment, the ways in which California's development affected the United States and the world, and the legacy of cultural and ethnic diversity in the state. California before the Gold Rush, the first California Sesquicentennial volume, combines topics of interest to scholars and general readers alike. The essays investigate traditional historical subjects and also explore such areas as environmental science, women's history, and Indian history. Authored by distinguished scholars in their respective fields, each essay contains excellent summary bibliographies of leading works on pertinent topics. This volume also features an extraordinary full-color photographic essay on the artistic record of the conquest of California by Europeans, as well as over seventy black-and-white photographs, some never before published.

This publication accompanies an exhibition of approximately 120 works of art and science loaned mostly from the Royal Collection of Spain (Patrimonio Nacional) to the Seattle Art Museum. Featuring the work of such artists as Bosch, Titian, El Greco, Bernini, Vel¾zquez, Murillo, Zubar¾n, and Goya, this publication includesøpaintings, sculpture, tapestries, scientific instruments, maps, armor, books, and documents. Eight essays provide historical context and artistic explication. Chronologically organized, the book charts the evolution of Spanish attitudes toward knowledge, exploration, and faith during three dynasties of Spain?s golden age, when the fervor for scientific and geographical knowledge coexisted with the expansion of empire and promotion of Christianity. The four themes of the exhibition are: The Image of Empire; Spirituality and Worldliness; Encounters across Cultures; Science and the Court. Spain in the Age of Exploration, 1492?1819, presents art and science from one of the most ambitious, magnificent, and complex enterprises in history.

This book describes the history of Patagonia from its discovery by Magellan to recent times. Since its early exploration Patagonia has been associated with conditions of extreme hardship and suffering. Men and ships were lost in the dangerous waters of the Straits of Tierra del Fuego, giving rise to tales of mysterious cities populated by the shipwrecked sailors, survivors of the many failed expeditions. Early Spanish attempts to colonize Patagonia ended in failure and the region remained largely uninhabited until the arrival of the Welsh in 1865. Their peaceful coexistence with the natives ended abruptly when the Argentine Army entered Patagonia and took over the Indian lands, which were promptly distributed to new settlers. As a new frontier society, Patagonia could not fail to attract its share of desperadoes and adventurers, the most notorious of whom are described in the book, including gold prospectors, hunters and bandits such as Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. The volume also narrates the anarchist’s struggles that took place in Patagonia at the beginning of the 1900s and the unsuccessful attempt by Perón’s government to convert Argentina into a nuclear power. In the early 1800’s the French traveller and explorer D’Orbigny said, " Perhaps there is no region within the world of which so much has been said, but so little is known." Patagonia is still a largely unknown and uninhabited place, but it does have a rich history as described in this book.

Este libro es mucho más que la historia del navío español San Telmo, construido en el último cuarto del siglo XVIII y perdido en 1819 en aguas antárticas, ya que la tragedia, en la que perecieron todos sus tripulantes, supuso el descubrimiento de un nuevo continente. Tras la lectura de esta obra, dicho descubrimiento queda mucho más claro. España fue la descubridora indiscutible de aquellos parajes siempre presentidos pero nunca hollados hasta que llegó el San Telmo. La autora recopila una amplia documentación cartográfica, geofísica, arqueológicas, petrológica y de análisis de las maderas encontradas en varias campañas de excavaciones. Obra profusamente ilustrada.

"A set of probing and fascinating essays by leading scholars, Alta California illuminates the lives of missionaries and Indians in colonial California. With unprecedented depth and precision, the essays explore the interplay of race and culture among the diverse peoples adapting to the radical transformations of a borderland uneasily shared by natives and colonizers."—Alan Taylor, author of The Divided Ground: Indians, Settlers, and the Northern Borderland of the American Revolution "In the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries the missions of California and the communities that sprang up around them constituted a unique laboratory where ethnic, imperial, and national identities were molded and transformed. A group of distinguished scholars examine these identities through a variety of sources ranging from mission records and mitochondrial DNA to the historical memory of California's early history."—Andrés Reséndez, author of Changing National Identities at the Frontier: Texas and New Mexico, 1800-1850

El descubrimiento de las Fuentes del Nilo, la expedición Malaspina, las visitas de tribus vikingas a tierras del Guadalquivir, Blas de Lezo, el «Lago Español»... y otros acontecimientos singulares que permanecen olvidados en la Historia de España. Muchos conocemos que Felipe II dispuso la Armada Invencible para castigar a Inglaterra por sus acciones de piratería y ataques a las colonias españolas... y que fracasó; pero ¿quiénes saben que Inglaterra sufrió su mayor derrota naval a manos de Blas de Lezo, que contaba con un soldado español por cada diez ingleses? O que Malaspina llevó a cabo una de las expediciones científicas más osadas del siglo xviii. ¿Quién sabe que España envió alrededor del mundo una expedición para vacunar contra la viruela a miles y miles de personas condenadas a morir por la enfermedad? Que la Inquisición española, pese a su fama, fue el tribunal inquisitorial más condescendiente de todas las inquisiciones europeas. ¿Y que Inglaterra y Estados Unidos fueron, en su tiempo, los países más interesados en falsear parte de la historia de España para ocultar la suya propia? Si hablamos de la Paz de las Tres Vacas, ¿quién advierte que es el tratado de paz vigente más antiguo de Europa, por el que Francia sigue pagando en la actualidad tres vacas a España cada año? ¿Quién sabe que las terribles tribus vikingas llegaron hasta Córdoba o Sevilla? O que las legendarias Fuentes del Nilo fueron descubiertas por un español en el siglo xvii. ¿Cuántos conocen que el océano Pacífico —que cubre un tercio de toda la superficie de la tierra— fue llamado el «Lago Español» por los enemigos de España?... Estos, y muchos otros, son algunos de los capítulos que nunca debieron olvidarse, disfruta descubriéndolos con esta sorprendente y rigurosa obra: Eso no estaba en mi libro de Historia de España.
