Full Description
Bear Flag Rising traces the history of California from the Indians who inhabited the land before the first Europeans saw it. The lives of the Californias in tranquil days before the advent of American trappers and the steady decline of the providence under Mexico's neglectful rule are brought to life in this epic chronicle. Bear Flag Rising, rich with the personalities of all those who participated, reveals, through exacting research and masterful prose, the full story of how Mexico lost California and how this Pacific paradise went on to become the "greatest jewel in the American Empire".
