Their Mariposa Legend: A Romance of Santa Catalina is a novel written by Charlotte Herr. The story is set on the beautiful island of Santa Catalina, off the coast of California. The novel follows the life of the protagonist, Mariposa, a young woman who is half Native American and half Spanish. Mariposa grows up on the island and falls in love with a young man named Carlos, who is also of mixed heritage. However, their love is forbidden by their families, who disapprove of their relationship due to their different cultural backgrounds. Despite the obstacles they face, Mariposa and Carlos continue to pursue their love for each other. The novel explores themes of cultural identity, family, and the power of love. It is a beautifully written romantic story that captures the essence of the island and its people.1921. Frontispiece by Orrin White. The book begins: It began to happen a long time ago, centuries ago, when, in a fragrant rush of rain, spring came one day to Punagwandah, fairest of the Channel Islands. Beneath the golden mists of sunrise danced a radiant sea. On steeply sloping hillsides where thickets of wild lilac bloomed, the lark shook from his tiny throat a tumult of glad music. In shadowed niches of the canyons lilies waited to fill with light their gleaming ivory cups. Spring in very truth was there.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
