The book provides a comprehensive historical account of the two Californian cities, Santa Barbara and Montecito, from their early beginnings to the time of publication.

He then goes on to discuss the Spanish colonization of the region, including the establishment of the Mission Santa Barbara and the Presidio.Southworth also covers the American period of Santa Barbara and Montecito's history, including the Mexican-American War, the Gold Rush, and the development of the railroad. He discusses the impact of these events on the cities and their residents.In addition to the historical account, the book also includes descriptions of the natural beauty of the region, including the Santa Ynez Mountains, the Pacific Ocean, and the Channel Islands.
