Description

"DON SAGASTO'S DAUGHTER: A ROMANCE OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA" Color: Green; Yellow; White "Don Sagasto's Daughter: A Romance of Southern California," by Paul H. Blades (Boston: The Gorham Press, 1911), 433 pp. The yellow hardcover book has the title at the top and the author's name at the bottom, all in brown printing, while at the center is an illustration of a valley flanked by a border of oranges and grapes. The title, author's name, and name of printer are on the spine. At the beginning of the inside are a title page, preface, and table of contents. Consisting of twenty-three chapters, the fictional story takes place in the regions of southern California between the years of 1870 and 1885, during the periods of Americanization and the construction of the first overland railroad. With some cover damage such as abrasions, dented corners, surface soiling, moisture damage, and light stains; as well as page foxing and discoloration, the overall condition of the artifact is good.
