    The Holidays are here and gift giving is not always easy to have it personal. Books are always appreciated or even desired, especially if it is a book that will surprise or educate you, in a fun way and by utilizing your Tacoma to see what the book shows is out there!

    1) The Old Missions of Baja & Alta California, 1697-1834 At M & E Books of El Cajon, California we publish the latest (and only) book that accurately describes and illustrates the founding of all the California Missions. This includes the 27 missions in Baja California, Mexico as well as the 21 in Alta California, USA (the state of California since 1850). When the missions were established, there were not two countries... just one, Spain. Our book, 'The Old Missions of Baja & Alta California, 1697-1834' clearly shows how the missions were really founded, and not the way most have been told or assumed. $21.75 includes tax and domestic shipping.

    We ship within 24 hours on all business days. Any Canadian orders, check with me on the international postage fee... last time I recall, it was about US$5 extra.
