This gripping account chronicles the suspenseful clashes of the explorers and Indians cultures on the early American western frontier. Travel back in time to 1767, an era of ignorance and enlightenment. Rub shoulders with Spanish royalty and revel in their debaucheries. Venture aboard the ships that brought Old World values to the New World. Trek with the priests and soldiers who sought to tame the strangers they encountered during their “Sacred Expedition.” Meet the indigenous people who resisted Spanish incursions. Calafia is the most complete tale ever of the colonization of California. It is also the first in a planned series about the people who made the Golden State what it is today.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Queen Calafia's Paradise, Ken Scambray explains that California offers Italian American protagonists a unique cultural landscape in which to define what it means to be an American and how Italian American protagonists embark on a voyage to reconcile their Old World heritage with modern American society. In Pasinetti's From the Academy Bridge (1970), Scambray analyzes the influence of Pasinetti's diverse California landscape upon his protagonist. Scambray argues that any reading of Madalena's Confetti for Gino (1959), set in San Diego's Little Italy, must take into account Madalena's homosexuality and his little known homosexual World War II novel, The Invisible Glass (1950). In his chapters covering John Fante's Los Angeles fiction, Scambray explores the Italian American's quest to locate a home in Southern California. Ken Scambray teaches courses in North American Italian literature and Los Angeles fiction at the University of La Verne.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Majestic Queen Calafía of California, created in 1510, during the height of Slavery, is the most invisible legendary American female superhero but is the first American superhero and is currently unknown and unpopular. She is the ruler of paradise island ¿California¿ invented in a Spanish novel out of the Medieval Renaissance era and consequently, the namesake of the State of California. Remarkably, the Queen of California is a blend of Black Panther and Wonder Woman. This book re-introduces Queen Calafía in a unique way interweaving fact and fiction to relay the historical origins of Wonder Woman, mystical California, and its mysterious, unknown seal (concepts not disclosed in even Jill Lepore¿s historical analysis of Wonder Woman). This book targets youth in a fun way who struggle during the important childhood development growth stages arising from social identity and psychological image issues, resonating from mistreatment in society regarding acceptance of complexion and skin tones. Analytical exercises develop critical thinking skills, highlighting elements of respect, and how to work within the legal system as a citizen of the U.S.A. ¿If we don¿t love our own history, we will be history.¿ ¿ Ms. Dicus."Learning history can open our eyes to the truth. There's so much that we assume that upon closer examination turns out to be false or misleading. Ms. Discus's uncovering of the real history of the California state seal is a breathtaking example of how one person can advance our understanding of our past and present and lead us into a more enlightened future." ¿Thomas Jefferson School of Law Professor Steve Semeraro

Book excerpt: The riveting story of how three years spent in the United States transformed Frida Kahlo into the artist we know today "[An] insightful debut....Featuring meticulous research and elegant turns of phrase, Stahr’s engrossing account provides scholarly though accessible analysis for both feminists and art lovers." —Publisher's Weekly Mexican artist Frida Kahlo adored adventure. In November, 1930, she was thrilled to realize her dream of traveling to the United States to live in San Francisco, Detroit, and New York. Still, leaving her family and her country for the first time was monumental. Only twenty-three and newly married to the already world-famous forty-three-year-old Diego Rivera, she was at a crossroads in her life and this new place, one filled with magnificent beauty, horrific poverty, racial tension, anti-Semitism, ethnic diversity, bland Midwestern food, and a thriving music scene, pushed Frida in unexpected directions. Shifts in her style of painting began to appear, cracks in her marriage widened, and tragedy struck, twice while she was living in Detroit. Frida in America is the first in-depth biography of these formative years spent in Gringolandia, a place Frida couldn’t always understand. But it’s precisely her feelings of being a stranger in a strange land that fueled her creative passions and an even stronger sense of Mexican identity. With vivid detail, Frida in America recreates the pivotal journey that made Senora Rivera the world famous Frida Kahlo.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This new English translation from the Castilian of Montalvo's chapter in The Adventures of Esplandian, first known printing in 1510, tells the fable of Queen Calafia and her island of California filled with gold, Amazon warriors and unusual beasts. Included are rare medieval woodcuts from 16th century French folio editions of Amadis de Gaule. Most historians believe Montalvo's popular book about the coast of the New World portrayed in this Spanish tale caused the Western frontier to be named California. The Castilian writer created a battle in which Christian knights defended Constantinople against the island of California's Amazon forces. Today, 500 years later, this 16th century mythical conflict still holds lessons about negotiation and tolerance, as well as feminine power and humor"--Cover.

This book was released on 2020-04-09 with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Calafia is a historical fiction thriller filled with mystery, suspense, and political drama. This tale is about the untold story of the Spanish discovery and colonization of California, chronicling the clash of the explorers and Indian culture on the early American western frontier.The adventure starts in Spain with sovereign power mongers pulling strings behind the scenes to gain military dominance in America. Creating the "Sacred Expedition" results in a cultural deluge for the indigenous people of California. Calafia threads the sea and land adventure of military men, missionaries, and explorers carrying out their often-brutal directives on the unsuspecting Indians. Loaded with actual accounts and versions of the people's history of California, embark on a first-hand retelling steeped in violence and marked by struggle. After a lifetime of service as a transcriber to King Charles III's chief minister and to several Alta California governors, Sergio Monino sits at his desk in Monterey in 1818 to pen Calafia for posterity. Part memoir, part narrative history, his story is filled with political intrigue, military exploits, daring exploration, religious beginnings, and cultural development.As fascinating as it is distressing, Sergio shares a sympathetic account of the indigenous people who would eventually be displaced by European pioneers in one of the greatest U.S. historical sagas.

Book excerpt: Blending the iconoclastic feminism of The Notorious RBG and the confident irreverence of Go the F**ck to Sleep, a brazen and empowering illustrated collection that celebrates inspirational badass women throughout history, based on the popular Tumblr blog. Well-behaved women seldom make history. Good thing these women are far from well behaved . . . Illustrated in a contemporary animation style, Rejected Princesses turns the ubiquitous "pretty pink princess" stereotype portrayed in movies, and on endless toys, books, and tutus on its head, paying homage instead to an awesome collection of strong, fierce, and yes, sometimes weird, women: warrior queens, soldiers, villains, spies, revolutionaries, and more who refused to behave and meekly accept their place. An entertaining mix of biography, imagery, and humor written in a fresh, young, and riotous voice, this thoroughly researched exploration salutes these awesome women drawn from both historical and fantastical realms, including real life, literature, mythology, and folklore. Each profile features an eye-catching image of both heroic and villainous women in command from across history and around the world, from a princess-cum-pirate in fifth century Denmark, to a rebel preacher in 1630s Boston, to a bloodthirsty Hungarian countess, and a former prostitute who commanded a fleet of more than 70,000 men on China’s seas.
