EXCERPT FROM THE INTRODUCTION: "The First Angelinos will have different meanings to different people. It will serve as a basic textbook and/or reference on The Gabrielino in college classrooms belonging to departments of anthropology, history, and ethnic studies. It will be a rewarding book for anyone with an interest in Native Americans or in American history to read. It will grace many a coffee table. It will, it is to be hoped, inspire scholars to further study. For those Gabrielino peoples seeking federal recognition it will be a cornerstone in establishing their very legitimate claims. Most important of all, it may provide youngsters who have a Gabrielino heritage with knowledge about their ancestors and enhance their pride in their heritage."
