4.0 out of 5 stars
A Genuine Latter-Day Californio,
This review is from: The California I Love (Hardcover)
Leo Carrillo the story teller far outshines the actor. You won't find a solidly informative biography here:there are no dates, little about his immediate family and next to nothing about his contemporary extended family. But the book fully and satisfyingly confirms and delivers on historian Leonard Pitt's characterization of Carrillo as the last to embody the Californios' outlook and culture even while his generation is rapidly assimilating.You'll find here historical as well as apocryphal vignettes and anecdotes transmitted as Californio family folklore, engagingly narrated.
4.0 out of 5 stars
