The Life of Padre Junipero Serra is a biography written by Francis Palou about the life of Junipero Serra, a Spanish Franciscan friar who played a significant role in the establishment of the Spanish missions in California during the 18th century. The book provides a detailed account of Serra's life, from his birth in Majorca, Spain, to his journey to the New World, where he worked tirelessly to convert the indigenous people to Christianity. The author describes Serra's challenges and accomplishments as he established a chain of missions along the California coast, including San Diego, San Francisco, and Monterey. Palou also explores Serra's relationships with the native people and his efforts to protect them from exploitation by the Spanish colonizers. The book provides a fascinating insight into the life of one of California's most important historical figures and sheds light on the early days of Spanish colonization in the region. Overall, The Life of Padre Junipero Serra is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of California and the role of religion in the early days of the state.This Is A New Release Of The Original 1884 Edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
