Publisher's olive green pebble grain cloth hardcover, gilt title stamped on spine cover/front board, gilt upper leaf edge, green endpapers, frontispiece color folding map. Measures: 1.5 W x 5 D x 7.25 H inches. About the author and work: An early printing. First published in 1886, Josiah Royce's history stands as the most important analysis and distillation of California during that crucial time period between 1846 to 1856. Those ten years, more than any other, shaped California's character and destiny.
