The History of San Diego, Volume 1: The Explorers is a comprehensive account of the early exploration and settlement of San Diego, California. Written by Richard F. Pourade, this book covers the period from the arrival of the first European explorers in the 16th century to the establishment of the city in the 19th century.Pourade provides a detailed and engaging narrative of the expeditions of Spanish explorers such as Juan Rodriguez Cabrillo and Sebasti�����n Vizca������no, who first encountered the area in their search for new trade routes and resources. He also delves into the interactions between the explorers and the indigenous people of the region, including the Kumeyaay and Luise�����o tribes.The book also covers the establishment of the first European settlements in the area, including the founding of the San Diego Mission by Father Junipero Serra in 1769. Pourade describes the challenges faced by the early settlers, including conflicts with the native population and struggles to establish a viable economy.Throughout the book, Pourade provides a wealth of historical detail and context, drawing on a variety of primary sources and historical accounts. The result is a rich and informative history of San Diego's early years, and a fascinating glimpse into the complex interactions between different cultures and peoples in this region.This is a new release of the original 1962 edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
