(EDT), ISBN 0806148721, ISBN-13 9780806148724, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Researching the history of early California, Beebe and Senkewicz noticed that women’s testimonios differed from those of the men. The men--missionaries, soldiers, and ranchers--tended to replicate hegemonic worldviews, while the women provided more nuanced insights that revealed missions to be complex institutions populated by a diverse group of Indians, mestizos, and others. They discovered that the women’s testimonies held a wealth of information about life in California that was not available anywhere else. Citing the potential for reshaping the understanding of early California, the borderlands, and the West, th also affords important implications for the study of ethnic and gender history.
