Mission San Juan Capistrano has long been called The Jewel of the Missions. This book captures the history of the mission from its founding in 1776 by Father (now Saint) Junipero Serra to the present day. Between the pages, you will learn about many features of the mission and discover why it continues to be a local treasure and a favorite of tourists. Lorna Collins is a local author who has co-written a novel about Mission San Juan Capistrano called The Memory Keeper. She and her husband, Larry K. Collins, are currently working on the sequel to the novel to be titled, Becoming the Jewel. Robert L. Schwenck is an award-winning local artist, who has been painting the mission and the town of San Juan Capistrano for many years. His love of the city and its historic buildings is evident in his work.
