History
The history of the 21 Missions and the California Mission Trail goes back over two centuries. We have created a directory of resources that we have used to inform this project. We have provided brief summaries on the history of the Missions, the Native American Indians whose ancestors built the Missions and created the trails that connected the Missions. We have also captured some of the essays, pamphlets, and graphics that propelled boosterism for the California Mission Trail that date back to the dawn of the automobile age and the heyday of the Mission Revival Period.
