5.0 out of 5 stars Good Reading , March 16, 2006
Being a member of The Juaneno Band of Mission Indians in San Juan Capistrano, Ca. This book has given me a great bit of understanding into how our people were treated and how this lady dedicated the last years of her life to helping the mission indians in California.I'm a new fan of Mrs.Jackson's writings.
