PREFACE In the preparation of this book the author has not sought to write acomplete history of the great Commonwealth of California but has endeavouredto set forth in simple narrative the salient features in the fascinatingstory of the up building of the Golden State. Himself a native son ofCalifornia born of pioneer parents he has long cherished the hope of seeingwider and deeper interest in State and local history taken by citizens ofCalifornia and especially by pupils in the schools. In adding this volume tothe Stories Of The States series therefore he has had constantly in mindthe needs of that great army of boys and girls in our public and privateschools whose lives should be enriched and ennobled by intelligent instructionin the history of our great sovereign State.......Many of the earliest booksparticularly those dating back to 1900s and before are now extremely scarceand increasingly expensive.
