With the help of the New Spain government and the local Ohlone Indians, the Mission Santa Clara de Asís was founded in 1777. The tools that they received from the government were supplemental to the physical labor that the Indian provided. The content provided in this book, aligned to California state standards, will provide students with a greater insight into the story of Santa Clara de Asís and California’s mission system. Readers will also be introduced to themes of economics, distribution, and time. This book is filled with excellent primary source materials and visuals, including illustrations, paintings, and maps.
