Spanish Arcadia is a novel written by Nellie Van De Grift Sanchez and published in 1919. The story is set in the early 19th century and follows the lives of a group of Californians living in the Spanish colonial town of Monterey. The novel explores the complex relationships between the characters, including love affairs, family disputes, and political tensions between the Spanish and Mexican governments. The main character, Don Francisco Ortega, is a wealthy landowner who struggles to maintain his status and protect his family from the changing political climate. Alongside Don Francisco, readers are introduced to a cast of characters including his wife, children, and various friends and acquaintances. Through their interactions, the novel explores themes of identity, power, and the impact of colonialism on both individuals and society as a whole. Sanchez's vivid descriptions of the landscape and culture of California add to the rich historical context of the novel. Overall, Spanish Arcadia is a compelling and insightful work that offers a unique perspective on the history of California and the complex relationships between its inhabitants.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
