Big Chief Solano: A Tale Of Mission San Francisco Solano is a historical fiction book written by Helen M. Roberts. The story is set in the early 1800s in California, where the Native American tribes are being forced to convert to Christianity by the Spanish missionaries. The book follows the life of Chief Solano, the leader of the Suisun tribe, who is torn between his loyalty to his people and his desire to maintain peace with the Spanish settlers.As Chief Solano struggles to navigate the changing political landscape, he must also deal with personal challenges, including his complicated relationship with his son, who has converted to Christianity. Along the way, he meets Father Altimira, a Spanish missionary who becomes his friend and confidant, and together they work to bridge the gap between the two cultures.The book is a vivid portrayal of the clash between the Native American and Spanish cultures, and the complex issues of identity, loyalty, and faith that arise from this conflict. It is a powerful and thought-provoking story that sheds light on an important period in California's history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
