Mariposa Now and Then Paperback - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Mariposa's history is ancient, for its past extends at least 10,000 years, when the First People populated the land, lived in peace with unreconstructed nature, were overtaken by settlers between 1848 and 1850, then were decimated. While the Miwok 'Mariposa County' stretches back ten millenia, the settlers' not quite 150 years...This is not a history of Mariposa Town or County but rather an anthology of unpublished and published articles about the people, animals, trees, a creek, park rangers, horses, dogs, cats, chickens, gold, a farrier, and ranch entrances. This is about Mariposa Town, yes, but more about Mariposa County: Jerseydale, Cathey's Valley, Midpines, and Yosemite. The text includes a Selective, Annotated Bibliography on the History of Mariposa. Many photos.
