In conducting research for my next historical novel about a Mexican hero named Fernando Rivera y Moncada, I was directed to a non-fiction tome about Baja California titled Antigua California.
I luckily found a pristine copy in the library of the local community college and was the first to check it out.
What I've discovered is amazing. Priests from a couple of hundred years ago came up with some simply astonishing stuff.
I'm sharing it with those of you interested in my blog - linked in my signature below. All are welcome to comment.

Re: Jesuit California
If you're waiting for the second part of Father Mayorga's journey in Jesuit California, there will be a brief pause while I get hard to work on the Proof Copy of my third historical novel in Father Serra's Legacy.
For those that are unfamiliar with this, it's the last stage prior to actual publication.
And then, after posting the next part about Father Mayorga, I have to get to work to finish the fourth – and final – novel in the series.
Stay tuned.
