San Diego histori…an Kathy Flanigan in her article "The Ranch at Warner's," -(Journal of San Diego History Fall 1996)-, noted: "Of the several historians who have researched and written about the Valle de San José, perhaps the most comprehensive account is The History of Warner's Ranch and Its Environs, published in 1927 by Joséph J. Hill, Associate Curator of the Bancroft Library and distinguished scholar of the southwestern fur trade. Prominent California historian, Herbert J. Bolton, who wrote the preface to Hill's book, claimed he was "a trained scholar who knew how to draw upon the fountains of knowledge." Bolton noted that Hill had at his fingertips the unrivalled resources of the Bancroft collection and that "his instinct for research took him to local archives and other repositories." Bolton concluded by saying, "We may feel condent that he has utilized all the principal materials pertinent to his fascinating subject.".
