This book unravels the ethnic history of California since the late nineteenthcentury AngloAmerican conquest and the institutionalization of 'white supremacy' in the state. Drawing from an array of primary and secondary sources, Toms Almaguer weaves a detailed, disturbing portrait of ethnic, racial, and class relationships during this tumultuous time. A new preface looks at the invaluable contribution the book has made to our understanding of ethnicity and class in America and of the social construction of 'race' in the Far West.
