In this well researched and amply illustrated book on the history of local wines and wineries, noted author and historian Richard L. Carrico takes the reader on a fascinating journey. From Baja California north to Vista and out east to Alpine, this book will satisfy the wine drinker and historian alike. This book fills an important void in local history who made the first wines, what was the first commercial winery, and is it true that at one time San Diego County rivaled Sonoma in wine production? From its start in 1769 wine has been an integral, although ignored part of San Diego County history. From the San Diego Mission to the Mexican Ranchos and then throughout the American period with its waves of wine drinking immigrants, vineyards and wineries rose and fell. Today we are experiencing a renaissance of wine making and once again San Diego County is poised to take its place among the wine growing regions of the United States. - Published by Recuerdos Press and distributed by Sunbelt Publications

In 1846 the United States invaded California, claiming the land by right of conquest and then by treaty. With the American invasion of California came the establishment of American law and government, including those laws associated with Indian Affairs and those governmental bodies skilled in handling American Indian policy. Overnight, the United States forced the Indians of San Diego to contend with new laws and policies created by a government far removed from the Pacific Coast. Indians continued their association with Hispanic citizens of the region, while at the same time, they learned to cope with the new Anglo citizenry. Hispanics and Anglos shared a common feeling toward Indians and Indian Rights. The Indians of San Diego suffered politically, economically, and legally as a result. The author examines such topics as treaty-making, removal, and reservations. He explores events associated with urban Indians as well as those relative to Indians living in the rural reaches of San Diego County. Racism, prejudice, and injustice are subjects detailed in Carrico's volume. The influence of the press in American Indian affairs in Southern California is another topic dealt with in some detail. Much of what appears in this Volume is new, and will certainly be of interest and use to anyone interested in the history of the American Indian and the American West.
