Book Description
Excerpt from Pioneer Days in the San Bernardino Valley Six years ago it seemed advisable that an authentic narrative of pioneer days in this valley should be left on record, and with that object in view I devoted more than two years making research and writing, preparatory to compiling a volume. In this I shall briefly speak of the work of the devoted Franciscan Fathers, who opened the way for civilization to enter the valley; then of the pioneers, who began the settlement of the city of San Bernardino; of the opening and development of the Eastberne Valley, of Grafton, Lugonia and Redlands. For the facts concerning the labors of the Catholic missionaries, I am indebted to Father Juan Caballeria, who kindly gave me permission to quote from his interesting history. As to the labors of the pioneers, it has been my happiness to be closely associated with many of these noble men and women, and from time to time I have gathered the valuable facts and interesting incidents that are embodied in this volume. For information regarding Eastberne Valley I am under obligation to Messrs. C. R. Paine, Geo. A. Cook, E. G. Judson, and Dr. Ellen Seymour; also to the Redlands Illustrated Facts for important data. For any errors that may have found their way into these pages, and for any omissions, I hope to be forgiven; and now I offer this little book to the descendants of those whose devotion inspired it, hoping that it may preserve the memory of heroism seldom equaled and never surpassed.

Book Description
The author discloses an intimate picture of Indian life and character, the Indians being the desert Cahuillas and their noted chief—Cabazon. She also tells of the early Mormon pioneers, with some reference to Capt. Jefferson Hunt and the Death Valley Party, and more particularly to the Brier family. Mrs. Crafts' book makes for interesting reading; and it may well be considered one of the most important among the relatively few source records available concerning the early history of the San Bernardino Valley. The author moved into the Valley in 1854, at the age of 29 and lived here for the remainder of her long, eventful life. Her book, now scarce and valuable, was written in her 80th year.

Book Description
Excerpt from History of San Bernardino Valley: From the Padres to the Pioneers, 1810-1851 These brief chapters of the history of San Bernardino Val ley have been prepared by Father Caballeria with the sole purpose of preserving some historical facts that are in dan ger of being overlooked and forgotten. The later days have many chroniclers, but of events prior to American colonization nothing has been written. These events form an important link in the historical chain; they provide a starting point, be yond which there is no record, no tradition. As the early history of San Bernardino Valley is inter woven with mission history, it is well to outline the principal events preceding the first settlement of the valley. This will cover brie y the Spanish occupation of California and what is known as the missionary era. No person is more competent to write of mission histor' than Father Caballeria. Endowed with a love for ancient historical lore, and the spirit that impels men to search f0! Knowledge, he deems no effort or labor too great if knowl edge may be gained. He found in the Indian and mission history of California an interesting field to which he has dovoted much time, study and research. His profession is the open sesame to doors sealed to the average student. The faded, musty old records of a by-gone age and generation written in the seclusion of Cloistered missions, need no trans lation to tell to him their story; for the language in which they are written is his mother tongue; the men who made the early history of California, by faith, race and land of birth, his kindred.
