Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
The surprising truth about intermarriage in 19thCentury California. Until recently, most studies of the colonial period of the American West have focused on the activities and agency of men. Now, historian Mara Raqul Casas examines the role of SpanishMexican women in the development of California. She finds that, far from being pawns in a maledominated society, Californianas of all classes were often active and determined creators of their own destinies, finding ways to choose their mates, to leave unsatisfactory marriages, and to maintain themselves economically. Using a wide range of sources in English and Spanish, Casas unveils a picture of womens lives in these critical decades of Californias history. She shows how many SpanishMexican women negotiated the precarious boundaries of gender and race to choose EuroAmerican husbands, and what this intermarriage meant to the individuals involved and to the larger multiracial society evolving from Californias rich Hispanic and Indian past. Casass discussion ranges from Californias burgeoning economy to the intimacies of private households and ethnically mixed families. Here we discover the actions of real women of all classes as they shaped their own identities. Married to a Daughter of the Land is a significant and fascinating contribution to the history of women in the American West and to our understanding of the complex role of gender, race, and class in the Borderlands of the Southwest.
