Jacob Baegert, a Jesuit, after a residence of eighteen years in California, published in Mannheim in 1772 an account of the country. Perhaps no man ever wrote an impersonal book with more bitterness of heart. According to Baegert, the country was absolutely unfitted for habita- tion ; it was inhabited by wild and ferocious beasts ; peopled by inhospitable and cruel savages; water was unfit for use; wood was scarce ; the soil could not sustain life.
The Government of Mexico printed in 1784: the
..." Regla- mento, " b or " The Rules and Regulations for the Government of the Calif ornias. " Like most of the Mexican documents of this period, this work is of most unusual occurrence.
Other important works of this time are the well-known "Life of Junipero Serra " c (Mexico, 1787); Clavijero's " History of California, " d in Italian ; Arricivita's " Cronica Serafica, " c and Sales's " Tres Cartas. " f This latter is three letters on California, written by a priest to his friend. In addition to the geography of the country v the work contains accounts of the Indians; the affairs of the Jesuits, Francis- cans, and Dominicans; and the Nootka Sound affair.
