The Squatter and the Don
Originally published in San Francisco in 1885, The Squatter and the Don is the first fictional narrative written and published in English from the perspective of the conquered Mexican population. Despite being granted the full rights of citizenship under the Treaty of Guadalupe-Hidalgo in 1848, this group had become a subordinated and marginalized national minority by 1860.
María Amparo Ruiz de Burton witnessed the disintegration of the old order, the shifts in power relations and the rapid capitalist development of the California territory, all of which led to the disruption of everyday life for the Californios. In The Squatter and the Don, a historical romance, Ruiz de Burton laments land loss and calls for justice and redress of grievances. At a time when the few histories narrated by Californios remained in manuscript form in archives, the very act of writing and publishing this novel was a form of empowerment.

Review: Homecoming Trails in Mexican American Cultural History: Biography, Nationhood, and Globalism
Michael Sedano
One might be forgiven thinking of Roberto Cantu only as the remarkable engineer who refurbishes the Antikythera maquina for The Mexican Flyboy in Alfredo Vea’s 2016 novel. I think of Roberto Cantu as the earnest UCLA grad student eloquently explaining historiography in Spanish at the 1973 Festival de Flor y Canto at USC. After I spent a career in private industry, I then learned Cantu engineers academic conferences with the same vision his literary counterpart puts together time machines.
Roberto Cantu’s 2021 collection, Homecoming Trails in Mexican American Cultural History: Biography, Nationhood, and Globalism, reflects one of Cantu’s most eclectic conference assemblages of historians and critics, including novelists writing as historians. The book results from Cantu and Cal State LA’s conference, 2018 Conference on Chic
