1897 - The Franciscans In California, Zephyrin Engelhardt
Franciscan Publications
Engelhardt noted that much had bee written about those who first introduced Christianity and civilization in California but little was reliable due to ignorance, malice, exaggeration and misstatements. Up to 1785, Engelhardt consulted original Spanish documents and compared those with statements of H. H. Bancroft.

He believed as to historic facts, that Bancroft's work was reliable and all the more valuable because it came from a non-Catholic source.
