Capistrano Nights (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781434489722)

Capistrano Nights is a collection of legends, recollections, and atmospheric sketches centered on Mission San Juan Capistrano and the cultural life of early California. Weaving together folklore, regional history, and romanticized storytelling, the book captures the spirit of a bygone era shaped by Spanish missionaries, Indigenous communities, and settlers. Each tale evokes a sense of place, rich with the sounds, scents, and shadows of Capistrano's past. Part tribute, part preservation, the work stands as both cultural memory and literary reverie.
