Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -It was then that John and I were slapped awake by the brilliant color and majestic presence of our hosts. The walls and ceilings that gave us shelter by night had, in the morning's light, come alive with the vivid forms of men, deer, mountain lion, bighorn sheep, birds and rabbits, all superimposed within a great mural.The Indigenous peoples of Baja California have long survived the unforgiving conditions of the desert by adapting to nature. But everything changes when the Spanish conquistadors start arriving and the missionaries are deployed. With no written language, the Indigenous shamans paint their people's history into murals on the walls of mountain caves. As suggested by one such mural, Califa, a clever Cochimi healer, and her shaman husband, temporarily trick the Spanish invaders into retreat. But nothing can keep the massive galleons away forever, and over the next centuries, the Native peoples either acquiesce to the missionaries out of hunger or die from illnesses introduced by the Europeans.Nearly three hundred years after the establishment of the first Spanish mission, three young American men set out to backpack the length of Baja California. They follow the Camino Real along the trail of the Jesuits, seeking out the Indigenous rock-art sites and what remains of the missions. Along the way, they are frequently aided by descendants of the first colonists and the original Native peoples, though these ranchers, vaqueros, and other hard-working people aren't exactly sure whether these backpackers aren't crazy. As they make the 1200-mile, 110-day trek, the Americans encounter many of the same dangers and challenges faced by the Indigenous peoples and their conquerors, while also thrilling to the beauty of the landscape, the generosity of the people, and the mystical enchantment of the cave paintings.A thoroughly engaging blend of history, historical fiction, and memoir, The Elusive Conquest of Queen Califa brings history to life both as it happened and as it's being reflected upon in the midst of a great adventure undertaken by three intrepid young men hundreds of years later. 316 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -Who gets to write history And what happens when we've been reading only one side of the story What have we missed by listening only to the conquerors For centuries, California's origin story has been built largely from Spanish journals, missionary records, ship's Logs and colonial reports. But long before Europeans began writing about this land, Indigenous artists were painting their own record across the canyon walls of Baja California - vast murals of hunters, the animals they hunted, spiritual ceremonies, enemies and survival.Those murals were not decoration. They were events, memories. They were history.The Elusive Conquest of Queen Califa reimagines California's past by placing that Indigenous record at the center. At its heart is Califa, a sharp, determined Cochimi healer whose people resist Spanish incursions for generations. Unlike the rapid fall of the Aztec Empire, California proved stubborn, difficult and unyielding. Conquest here unfolded slowly - through environmental hardship, disease, shifting alliances, and the relentless pressure of the Spanish and Jesuit empires.Nearly three centuries later, three young Americans set out to backpack the entire length of Baja California, tracing the Camino Real and the ruins of the Jesuit missions. As they walk the same desert corridors once traveled by shamans, soldiers, and priests, they confront the same forces that shaped the region: survival, belief, ambition, faith and the struggle over whose story endures.Blending historical fiction, memoir, and five decades of research, Alan Ehrgott challenges readers to reconsider not only California's past, but the nature of historical evidence itself. What if murals, landscapes, and oral memory deserve to stand beside written archives What if conquest narratives look different when viewed from the ground rather than behind a canon on the ship's deck This is more than a regional history.It's an invitation to rethink how civilizations record themselves - and how entire cultures can be misunderstood when their forms of memory don't fit Western expectations.California is only the beginning.Libri GmbH, Europaallee 1, 36244 Bad Hersfeld 316 pp. Englisch.
