Expedition to San Francisco Bay in 1770: Diary of Pedro Fages is a historical account of the Spanish expedition led by Pedro Fages to explore the San Francisco Bay area in 1770. The diary was written by Fages himself, who was a Spanish soldier and explorer. The book was originally published in 1911 and is a primary source of information about the early exploration of California by the Spanish.The diary provides a detailed account of the expedition, including the journey from San Diego to San Francisco Bay, the encounters with Native American tribes, and the establishment of a Spanish settlement in the area. Fages also describes the geography, flora, and fauna of the region, as well as the challenges faced by the expedition, such as harsh weather conditions and difficult terrain.The book is an important historical document that sheds light on the early history of California and the role of the Spanish in the colonization of the region. It provides a firsthand account of the interactions between the Spanish and the Native American tribes, and the cultural and environmental impact of the Spanish settlement on the region. The diary is also a valuable resource for scholars and researchers interested in the history of the American West and the exploration of the Pacific coast.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
