Book Description
Excerpt from Annual Publication of the Historical Society of Southern California and Pioneer Register, Los Angeles, 1900 If a person walking down Broadway or Spring street, at the present day, could turn Time backward in his flight fifty years, how strange the contrast would seem. Where now stand blocks of stately buildings, whose windows are aglow with all the beauties of modern art, instead there would be two or three streets whose business centered in a few tiendas, or stores, decorated with strings of chilis or jerked beef; The one window of each tienda was barred with iron, the tiendero sitting in the doorway to pro teet his wares, or to watch: for customers. Where red and yellow brick buildings hold their heads proudly to the heavens'rnow, fifty years ago the soft hills slid down to the back doors of the adobe dwelling and offered their wealth of flowers and wild herbs to the botanist. Sidewalks were unknown, pedestrians marched single file in the middle of the street, in winter to enjoy the sunshine, in summer to escape the trickling tears of brea which, dropping from the roofs, branded their linen or clogged their footsteps Now where the policeman' 'wends his weary way, the vaquero, with his lively cuidado (lookout) lassoed his. Wild steer, and dragging him to the mantanza at the rear of his dwelling, Offered him. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Publications of the Historical Society of Southern California and Pioneer Register, Los Angeles, 1899 One Of the very earliest American settlers of California, and for many years one of the most prominent and influential citizens of Los Angeles, was Abel Stearns. Mr. Stearns, or Don Abel, as he was called both by the native Californians and by the Americans - (in Spanish-speaking coun tries pe'ople, high or low, rich or poor, are called by their Christian names, with the prefix Don or Dona) - was a native of Salem, Mass, where he was born in the year 1799, just one hundred years ago. He came to Mexico in 1826, where in 1828 he was naturalized; and to Monterey, California, in 1829. In 1833 he settled in Los Angeles, which remained his home till his death, which occurred at San Francisco in 1871, at the age of 72 years.

Book Description
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
