Mission San Fernando Rey de España

By J. Ching

Mission San Fernando Rey de Espa?a was founded in 1797 by Fray Ferm?n Francisco de Lasu?n. The people of the mission produced many things, such as candles, soap, and wine. The Chumash and Tongva Indians who lived at the mission were very skilled at making leather goods. They made shoes, clothes, and saddles. All of these products could be sold to people living in the nearby pueblo of Los Angeles. The content provided in this book, aligned to California state standards, will provide students with a greater insight into the story of San Fernando Rey de Espa?a and California's mission system. This book is filled with excellent primary source materials and visuals, including illustrations, paintings, and maps.
