Kaliforniakoak

Kaliforniakoak revisits the early era of European exploration and colonization of the great "unknown" land to the north of New Spain, Mexico. This land lay beyond the ferocious deserts and wild seas, a rumored paradise. The book looks at these chaotic times from a unique perspective, that of the Basques, who came as explorers, missionaries, seafarers and played a pivotal role in creating what is today known as California.
