Dawn of the Dons: The Romance of Monterey is a historical novel written by Tirey L. Ford. It is set in Monterey, California during the early 19th century when California was still under Mexican rule. The book revolves around the lives of the Spanish dons, their families, and the native people who lived in the area. The story follows the love affair between a young Spanish don, Carlos, and a beautiful native girl, Lolita. Despite their different backgrounds, the two fall deeply in love, but their relationship is threatened by the cultural and societal norms of the time. Alongside the romantic storyline, the book also delves into the political and social issues of the era, including the tensions between the Spanish and Mexican governments, the exploitation of the native population, and the struggle for power among the wealthy landowners. Dawn of the Dons is a vivid portrayal of the early days of California and the complex relationships between the different groups of people who lived there.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
