Hardcover. Zustand: Near Fine(+). Zustand des Schutzumschlags: near fine. Octavo in grey color illus DJ, xii, 185 pages, 24 cm. "On a hot July morning in 1853, a gunfight between lawmen and bandits broke out on the western edge of the San Joaquin Valley, midway between San Francisco and Los Angeles. When the smoke cleared, Joaquin Murieta, one of the most notorious figures of the Gold Rush, was dead. Soon his severed head was traveling around the new state of California in a pickling jar, inspiring a myth that continues to grow today." "A penetrating inquiry into the life and times of this famous badman, Searching for Joaquin also probes the role that Murieta played in the creation of the myth of old Hispanic California - that lazy, sunlit land of missions and ranchos, plazas and fiestas, high passion and derring-do. As Thornton shows, Murieta continues to play multiple roles today: the chivalric outlaw who settles conflict with violence; the embodiment of a simpler world where life is lived more passionately; and most of all, the avenging angel who rectifies Anglo misdeeds against powerless Hispanics." "Searching for Joaquin is a classic piece of literary detective work, making the vanished past come alive again. In addition to opening a window onto a bygone time, Bruce Thornton shows how myth and history flow in and out of each other and affect the way we live now. Bruce Thornton teaches classics and humanities at California State University at Fresno."--BOOK JACKET.

hardcover. San Francisco. 2003. Encounter Books. 1st American Edition. Very Good in Slightly Worn Dustjacket. 1893554562. 185 pages. hardcover. keywords: History California. FROM THE PUBLISHER - On a hot July dawn in 1853, a gunfight took place on the western edge of the San Joaquin Valley, midway between San Francisco and Los Angeles. When the smoke cleared, Joaquin Murrieta, one of the most notorious bandits of the Gold Rush lay dead. Soon his severed head was traveling around the new state of California in a pickling jar. Murrieta would have an unparalleled afterlife in dime novels and movies, Mexican folksongs and Gold-Rush legends. Anglos regarded him as a homegrown Robin Hood, while Mexicans on both sides of the border celebrated him as an enemy of Yankee rule. And as the legendary bandit's myth grew and his deeds and death were celebrated throughout the world, every detail of his story, down to the color of his eyes, was debated and contested. Not until Bruce Thornton has anyone tried to unravel his legend from his life and to understand the meanings Murrieta has acquired on his way to literary and cultural immortality. A penetrating look at the life and times of a celebrated bad man, Searching for Joaquin also probes the role Joaquin Murrieta has played in the myth of the old Hispanic California, that sunlit lazy land of missions and ranchos, moonlit plazas and fiestas, high passion and derring-do. As Thornton shows, that myth is accepted as history by many even today, and Murrieta continues to play many roles: the chivalric outlaw who settles conflict with violence; and the emblem of a simpler world where life is lived more intensely and passionately; and most of all, the avenging angel who rectifies Anglo misdeeds against powerless Hispanics. Searching for Joaquin opens a window onto a vanished past and also shows how myth and history flow in and out of each other and continue to affect the way we live now. inventory #44746 Very Good in Slightly Worn Dustjacket.
