Nuestra Señora de la Soledad was founded in 1791 by a friar named Fermin Francisco de Lasuén. It was the thirteenth mission to be founded. Life at Soledad was challenging for everyone. The area around Soledad was hot and dry in the summer and very cold in the winter. In the early 1800's an aqueduct was built to regularize the water supply, helping crops to grow, making life for both the friars and the Indians more manageable and less grueling. The content provided in this book, aligned to California state standards, will provide students with a greater insight into the story of Mission Nuestra Señora de la Soledad and California's mission system. This book is filled with excellent primary source materials and visuals, including illustrations, paintings, and maps.
